Flagging an Omission 0
The U. S. Flag Code is considered guideline, not law. I assume that is why the story and, I guess, the ruling do not mention that the Flag Code forbids wearing the flag or representations of the the flag as clothing, with the exception of a small patch on athletic uniforms.
Standing at the confluence of ignorance and jingoism, the flag-wearers announced their intent to appeal.
Treating the flag with disrespect is a poor way to parade one’s patrio–oh, never mind.
