Can you show a reference where NF took a direct position on this? And all most states did was make the flag optional for officials. I do not know anyone that made it a requirement. But if you read the actual code, officials do not fit into the equation. And based on what I have read most people are not wearing the flag properly if you believe what borders are required or not.
