American flag ban?

The whole leave the country thing is a bit harsh guys, now i completly agree this is america and the flag should be allowed anywhere. Putting a ban on foreign flags would be more appropriate, and suspending the trouble makers. Its kinda like saying since cars kill people lets bann em all! Just doesnt work that way.

But if somone has a different opinion they have the right to it. They are in america and people died to defend the fact that we can have diverse opinions. What if somone starts using that against us so called "gun nuts". When they enact harsh gun laws? Is all that they will have to say "If you dont like it than leave the country!" ?

I totally agree with that X. My hope would be that the ban turns out to be temporary once this blows over.
Lets not forget that bad things have been done before by people who were (figuratively or physically) carrying a flag: McCarthyism, Fascism...
Even though I am proud of my country and happy to show the flag (especially on Veterans day), when people are being jerks carrying the flag, I don't like it and don't want anyone to think the jerks represent me.
