A VAST majority of the people in America have no idea how to treat a flag to begin with. When the fad started in 2001, I saw more flags hung the wrong way than hung the proper way. People leave them out overnight and in rain. Nobody cares. They want to look trendy.
I asked a soldier once why his uniform had a flag on his right sleeve with the stars on the upper right. He said "The stars charge into battle."
That's just not right. The stars do not charge into battle. The position of honor of the stars is always in the upper left. I don't know when they made this change to the uniform, but improper display of the flag is a sign of distress.
