Saw an article on MSN this past week. Macy Gray wants the colors on the flag changed so the white stripes are brown and the stars are all different colors to support LBGT……

As stated before:

I fear we will become something very different than what we were, and not better.

I fear we will have no say in this change.

I fear it has already started and the result will be our ruin.

I fear like too many situations, we will not see our failure until irreparable damage is done.

I hope I'm wrong.

Sad way of the world were moving towards.

You’re comment of I fear we will have no say in this change… if you’re Caucasian you’re 100% correct, you won’t have any say, or opinion. You’re blinded by your racist white privledge.

Many years ago in Boy Scouts we learned flag etiquette. Did you know that the flag should never be flown at night without lighting? Did you know that the flag should never be flown in inclement weather? I see this all the time. Here's a summary of how to treat our flag respectfully

Given the things I see boaters (and drivers for that matter) doing every day, an upside down flag on a boat would make me think of carelessness, cluelessness, not paying attention, etc. rather than a deliberate, thoughtful, and planned political statement.

I play a game with my kids when we are in the car and on the water. When we see annoying behavior - cars driving in the left lane when others are trying to pass, people driving under the speed limit with a line of cars behind them, boaters not slowing down in no wake zones, bumpers or ropes over the side when underway, violating the 150' rule, etc. we debate whether they are the unaware, entitled, or just don't care. Given this thread, maybe we'll have to add making a statement!

Based on the initial post (not being there it's hard to say) I think we would have come down on unaware.

Several of the respondents here fit the white privileged description perfectly. Unfortunately they don’t have a clue that they are racist.
Rapping yourself in the flag dosent make you a great American, giving everyone an opportunity to achieve the American dream, even if it might not be in your own interest , is the start of being a great American
