I personally do find fault with that thinking.
I see it as showing a lack of respect for the very thing the Flag represents.
What kind of pride and patriotism is being shown by knowingly violating the wishes object of your pride and patriotism?
I find less fault with those who may display a flag improperly without knowing the code...
I would think that, knowing what the code has to say, if one wanted to display pride and patriotism they could fashion an emblem of red-white and blue. Maybe lie the banners that they hang from thhe stands during the World Series....
