I’m fine with it as long as they’re properly trained and respect it.

Everything before that states the funds allocated by the act can’t be used to fly or display a flag other than a government flag.

A public employee couldn’t spend embassy or facility money on a non-government flag, but I haven’t read anything about them spending their own money and still flying the flag.

The creativity people were willing to share. Forums, DIY guides, blogs, neat yet crappy animations on Youtube. It’s all kind of still there, but it’s hard to find with how the internet is today.

It was full of passionate people who made things because they enjoyed it. Now, it’s either how-to sites written by bots/keyboard monkeys, or you’re fast-tracked to the #1 video. You have to really go looking for the human now.

Clickbait. The actual resolution prohibits the use of the funds being allocated from the new budget to be used on anything other than government related flags. This is just funding for flags, there’s no outright ban on pride flags.

Say what you will, but at the end of Trump’s presidency Pence grew a spine and told him to fuck off.

Trump was hanging onto the idea that Pence would magically solve his problem by denying the certification. Of course, Trump’s cult went to the capitol to try and hang him. I hope he endorses the other candidates, or Biden when it comes to it. It’d be a massive middle finger to the entire cult.
