Burning the flag is the proper way to dispose of it. Like when the colors start fading, it's time to burn it and get another.👍

But you don't just light the whole flag on fire. You're supposed to cut it into individual stripes and separate the star field.

Thank you.

I was taught that it's supposed to be burned in a civilized manor, and not as a public thing. No one ever told me about cutting it into strips or any of that. Although we're probably both right, the cutting part could just be an optional thing. I'll take a look on Wikipedia.👍

Edit:
Wikipedia
If the edges become tattered through wear, the flag should be repaired or replaced. When a flag is so tattered that can no longer serve as a symbol of the United States, it should be destroyed in a dignified manner, preferably by burning.
It says nothing about cutting it, but it can be done that way as long as in a dignified manner.

Edit Again: Let's get back on topic shall we?

Even then, lighting a flag on fire, is not required for disposal.

It's a symbol, for crying out loud.

Yea, flag retirement has a ceremonial aspect to it that specifies handling instructions including cutting the flag before burning. Your local boy scout troop will be happy to retire any of your old flags in ceremonial fashion.

So is the retirement tradition.
 
Flag-burning has even been challenged in the the Supreme Court. But, enough about that:

Well okay, didn't know about that. Thought it was illegal to burn the flag or something. 👍

Yeah, thanks. Since my PC is broken and I'm using a different web browser on my dad's laptop, expect to see one or two misspelling from me. :)

sorry if these have been posted before...
Some of them are posted before, but I think I find some of them awesome. Can't wait to see the look on V1P3R's face. :lol:👍

He owned himself. :lol:
SELF PWNAGE FW!

And I was thinking "She gives new meaning to the term 'off like a prom dress'".
