    What a dumb argument re: breathing. As before context. Their breathing isn’t specifically being used to target people even if it results in people being targeted. If everyone started flying flags all the time (which is frankly bizarre, there’s no historical precedent for this and frankly people who go all out over a flag in England have always been seen as a bit weird) the racists would see it as vindication and support.

        On VE day? That would most certainly come under special occasions, no? We’re talking about day to day hanging of flags in the street.

          Happens where I live quite frequently. Going back even to when my parents were younger.
