One rule states that the flag should never be used as “wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery.” Yet, there are many people who have worn the flag as fashion. The next rule states that the flag should never be used as decoration. This makes the claim erroneous, because the flag is used for advertisement on things such as plates, napkins, and cups.

They protested to shine a light on the mistreatment they encountered at the hand of the British rule. By taking a stand, the colonies made more people aware, and broke away from the British. By this protest, they established the great country we know as America
