Love the "Capture the Flag" title! I carried the American flag at Portland’s No Kings rally. I carried it as the symbol of our All-American movement, remembering how “they” carried the Confederate Stars & Bars through the Capitol Rotunda on January 6th. And the Nazi Swastika through the streets of Charlottesville. And the “Don’t Tread on Me” coiled snake flag at maga rallies. I say let them have their flags of trump and treason. The American flag belongs to all of us. Democrats, Independents, Republicans. But not to those who would do harm to America or to Americans. At the rally I saw so many signs with terrific messages: “Human Need before Corporate Greed”, "Make America Moral Again”, A Better World is Possible”, "IKEA has Better Cabinets”, “Does This Ass Make My Country Look Smaller?”. By waving the Stars & Stripes — right-side-up — my message was, “We love our country, and this is our flag,” a symbol of resistence and renewal.
