I have not seen any houses with our flag installed around yet. It was interesting to see so many Americans do it. The only occasion you see flags in people's hand is during a football (soccer) match when national team plays.
Flag is not that sacred and people are not that patriotic in that sense to the degree of the US, so we've not reached the point to burn our own flag just yet. Plus we have so many other countries' flags to burn. They usually don't get it right anyway, I mean they are going to burn it in a few minutes. They are idiots! :p
