Are there penalties for violating the Flag Code?

That would be unconstituional no?

No. The flag code is just a code, not a law. Certainly not an
amendment.

Nah, I meant it would be unconstitutional to penalize certain uses of
the flag.
Since they decided that burning it was a protected right.
It may be an extreme lack of taste and etiquette but not unlike
trolling here, not much you can do about it other than express your
displeasure.

Personally I'm not a big flag waver anyway but I thought this was a
little ironic considering the number of gas tanks running around with
Old Glory on them as well as t-shirts, jackets and other
paraphernalia.

Maybe I'll break out the Maple Leaf. <sfsf> (In fact, my one HD
t-shirt has a Maple Leaf on it)

Before you critisize someone,
you should walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you critisize them,
you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
