Would the assembled Yanks please give their rebellious opinions as to wether its appropriate to hang both the Union and US flags tomorrow, or just "Old Glory"?

Of course, if both are hung, the correct conditions would be observed.

Correct side.
Height difference.
.45 bullet holes riddling the Stars and Stripes.
etc.

Would you be offended to see both flags flown together on this, most American of holidays?

Up your Revolution.

fly both i don't think anyone will car Mexicans do it all the time

as for the bullets holes people my take it as a symbol of Americas struggles for Independence , It will make are flag look bad ass and tough =-P

Thanks very much.
Your command of your language is singularly impressive.

He's frickin' Shakespeare in comparison with most of the population under 30!

thank u

UR wlkm!

thank u agean ROTFL

Not sure about the bullet holes. (Do the Chinese sew those into the flags that they export to us?) But otherwise, sure, why not?

Do fly them at equal height, though, out of respect to both.

You can show particular allegiance to yer new homeland by eating a few extra hot dogs in her honor (English mustard is acceptable, if you insist, just be sure to spell "honor" correctly), and by refraining from any hot tea or marmite during the entirety of the July 4 celebration. If your hosts require you to drink Budweiser or toss a (real) football, you may be forced to comply with instructions.

On 5 July, things do return to normal, and you may resume practicing your quaint English ways. Until then, have a nice day!

Shit i am an american and i got a Case of bass and a case of Guinness Draught with the idea of making Black and tans Tomorrow

Right then.

At dawn, they're both going up.
Technically, the US one should be flown higher than any other its next to - but if anyone tries to measure it, I'll just shoot them for trespassing.

Cheers and happy Colonial Rebellion day.

I'm just going to spend the day walking around singing ..Land of Hope and Glory ...just to see if any one recognises it

They will recognise as it is used in most graduations.

Can we make it three flags, one more for Wales and better still go for four with my fathers Scotish one next to them all? We'll look like the United Nations of immigrants!

That was the one bit about which I was being serious -- flags of different nations are supposed to be flown at the same height. It would be a show of disrespect to the UK if you flew its flag below the US flag.

The US flag should be flown above the flags of the individual states, as a symbol of the meaning of federalism. But nations are supposed to be peers, so they fly at the same level.

Flying the US flag above the Union Jack would essentially be saying that England, etc. ain't worth a damn and if it's Scottish, it must be crap. Even the Iranian and North Koreans are supposed to get equal flag treatment, despite that evil axis of theirs. Even with it being We Won! You Didn't! Day and all, it just wouldn't be very nice.

Now, if only our diplomatic skills were as good as our flag etiquette...

From the United States Flag Code, which you should have memorized: "When flown with the national banner of other countries, each flag must be displayed from a separate pole of the same height. Each flag should be the same size. They should be raised and lowered simultaneously. The flag of one nation may not be displayed above that of another nation."

Of course, adhering to the flag code may result in a bulletous rampage against your windows.
