I am very proud to this man and his family coming to this country and becoming a responsible American. I am very proud that he is flying the American flag. I am sorry to say I don't support his vallient effort. The flag is too big for the pole. He cannot fly it a half mast. According to flag etiquette, the flag must be able to be flown at half staff and not touch the ground. (Section 8b.) "The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground." A flag pole of this size 40', requires a flag 6'x10.
It's exciting to see so many people out to support this fella but how about chipping in and just buy him the right size flag?
Being a good citizen also requires following the laws
