Conservation Voice and Trouble display the American Flag backwards in their avatar. The union should be on the left (flag's own right). Also, the American flag should NOT have objects placed on, over it, or be used as a covering for a ceiling, nor have any mark, insignia, letter, work, figure, picture or drawing of any nature placed upon or attached to it.
Trouble has a pink AR15 over the flag. :( Outdoor338's avatar has John Wayne in front the flag that appears to be in a wave like on a pole. So Wayne is not necessarily placed upon or attached to the Stars and Stripes.

Okay, back on topic.



The flag is blowing in the wind. It's the way it looks to an observer on one side of the flag on a flagpole. You can't expect everyone to run to the other side just to see it correctly.

Your comments are correct when you're looking at a flat flag on a wall. But on a flagpole, you'll see it from both sides.

It looks backwards. The image is flat on the screen, as if displayed on a wall. The blue should be on the left.

Technically, I think you're correct - since it's an image of a suspended flag flapping in the wind it can go either way... It just looks backwards :)

Like I said...no apologist here!


Any post containing brain-dead racism like that is beneath comment other than to note the brain-dead racism and move on.

No apologies required, just realize that when you post sh!t like that, you're gonna get sh!t back.

You don't hang around flagpoles much, do you? If the wind changes direction, it will blow the other way.

I don't think the flag regulations apply to avatars except the backwards flag doesn't feel right.

You all happy now?

I can't help it that she's raising her RIGHT arm to shine her light, BTW.

The right-wing hot air is blowing the flag to the left

You could just flip the image in both cases :biggrin:

Every president of the United States has supported the work of the Boy Scouts of America since its founding in 1910, and each served as honorary president of the BSA during his term in office.

While serving as governor of the state, President Ronald Reagan became involved in Scouting with the Golden Empire Council in Sacramento, California. During his eight years in that office, he chaired Project SOAR (Save Our American Resources), served as membership roundup chairman, participated in annual Report to the Governor ceremonies, and served on the council’s advisory board. For his service to youth, he was awarded the Silver Beaver Award. As a member of the Los Angeles Area Council, he served as Scoutorama chairman, as a speaker for the council recognition dinner, and as a sustaining member.

Constipated Voice, it would be too confusing to call them musturds as it sounds like a condiment.

The silent majority will be silent no more.
