Just the day before yesterday, I attended a Jewish party held by my friend. We usually call him a boy but he is already 50 years old, but still looks like he is as fresh from his early 20’s. Moving on, he is a very staunch supporter of the US, so like any of us warm blooded patriotic citizen, my friends and I got him some red, white, and blue candles. The moment he blew away at those candles he got a great smirk on his face indicating he knew that they were trick candles, those types you cannot blow out. This also sparked a weird but fun idea in my mind.
I was thinking like “Why not make US flags also fire retardant?” In effect, they would be very much like the trick candles but would be working in reverse wherein they wouldn’t be burned by any means of lighting them up. I know it would never be a good idea or sight to see or know anyone who would be publicly burning any national flag, let alone the US flag.
This would make any haters or protesters of the US flag and the nation look silly and funny, trying to find out any means of burning the flag to no avail. And in case there would be burned flags, they would only mean that they are not authentic US flags so it wouldn’t really be much of a damaged pride issue.
And while we are at it, we could have a fire retardant US flag that not only prevents fire from consuming it, but also have a superficial normal coating or layer of fibers with some chemical compound that would spew out colors as it burns. So when anyone would try to burn an authentic US flag up, they would see it burn with fireworks happening, only to find an unscathed fire retardant layer underneath.
