Mimi, have you approached your neighbors and asked them if they have converted to Christianity upon entering our country? That should always be your first step when welcoming foreign people to your community. Also, it is also common courtesy to show them how to order a pizza.

Absolutely right, but it must be a *pepperoni and anchovies* pizza! Anything else would be blasphemous and un-American.

Remember, one of the great things about the USA, is that we CAN fly the flags of other nations. Of course if you choose to do so it may influence what your neighbors or anyone else who passes by your house thinks about you.

We just passed a prime example of this in St. Patricks Day, in my neighborhood it is not uncommon for people to fly the Irish flag on St. Patricks Day. Some people fly the Irish flag for the entire month, either in addition to or in place of their regular flag display, if they have one.

I just went to Ireland this past September and decided to join in the celebration this year, of special note the Irish flag pictured below was purchased in Ireland:



In my case I only did it for one day and flew it in place of my regular flag, but on a different pole that does not have an eagle on top.

During Oktoberfest I may fly my Bavarian flag.

In other words, I personally don't see anything wrong with flying whatever flag you want. It may help shape my opinion of you, but its fine by me.

to be completely honest no one should ever fly another country's flag in america with not flying america's flag along with it. its majorly disrespectful. I understand that not every one has two flag poles well here's a way to solve that problem...fly the us flag above the other flag. you are in america and should show the pride and respect that being an american means. i do not tolerate people flying their country's flag by it self to the point i will remove it. I know im not alone on this. Please do that right thing and be american. be proud to be apart of a country that has so many nationalities working together. thats it for now.

Hi, dbt,

no one should ever fly another country's flag in america with not flying america's flag along with it. its majorly disrespectful.

Why? What's wrong with a friendly recognition of another country's holiday, for example? I do it all the time.

here's a way to solve that problem...fly the us flag above the other flag. you are in america and should show the pride and respect that being an american means

Actually, this is not correct. The US flag code, US military regulations and international custom all say that national flags should be at the same height when they're displayed together.

i do not tolerate people flying their country's flag by it self to the point i will remove it.

Well, I'm glad that you don't live near me, because I'd hate to have to have you arrested for trespassing and theft!
