As a civilian non veteran is it ok to have my American flag on my camera bag like in a kit roll?

1. I don’t really know what you’re asking but I can safely say the vast majority of people who use American flag stuff have never served in the military or even considered it so you’re fine. Most important thing if you care about being respectful is to just prevent it from getting soiled or touching the ground.

2. Sure. Just don’t use it like a towel or something like that. I have seen towels with American flags, then I have seen flags used as towels. 1st one is OK, 2nd one isn’t. Why? I don’t know. But it is.

3. Veterans don’t own the flag.

4. You are asking if it is ok to use the American flag as an American?

   Have you lived here long?

   What exactly are you worried about? Like some asshat will judge you? You are somehow concerned about the flag?

5. You do you. We all own the flag, not just certain groups.

6. The American Flag is for everyone. It’s not just a veteran thing. Veterans fought for your right to wear and fly that flag and whatever one you want.

7. Bro use the American flag as a god damned mop. Anyone that *truly* has a problem with it has too much time on their hands. As a vet, I fought for your right to burn the damn flag if that’s what you wanna spend your time doing

8. Of course. Why couldn’t you?
