My friend, over on Oak Island you do not have a case of desecration. After 21 years in the military, I can tell you this for I have seen true desecration. Desercration to my flag, my Country, and the uniform I wore. What Mr. Perry is doing was acctualy taught to us in the Army and is defined as"Flags may simply be used unconventionally: they may be hung upside down or reversed (in some countries,this is also conventional protocol to indicate a problem)." Would you rather he burn it? I know I would'nt.
