Flags on cars

I have now heard a number of debates about England flags on cars. Some people get quite upset with others saying they look tacky or people who drive around with England flags are some how idiots. I have also heard people claim that drivers who don't have England flags are unpatriotic or snobs.

Some say it's mums and dads just sticking them on cars for the children. Well maybe it is but so what. Children don't have all these hang ups about how things look or how people judge you or how society see's you. Perhaps we can learn something from children. To not care so much how others judge us and just let ourselves go. It's good to let your hair down from time to time.

Since when did we all get so upset about such unimportant matters. If you want an England flag on your car then have one, don't criticise others for not having them. If you don't like them, don't judge others who do. There's nothing wrong with them. You don't want a flag fine just don't have a flag.

Now please can we all calm down and enjoy the world cup.

    As long as it isn't blocking the driver's view in any way or is not properly secured and thus in danger of flying off and poking some unfortunate bystander in the eye....

  3. I agree. as long as it is not creating a problem to the driver, then people should left to choose what they put in their cars, including flags. Some people have stickers,etc... that is just a question of taste!
