It seems since Obama was in charge up till now , the flag has been used and abused more and more. Seems it is ALWAYS at half staff for one reason or another.
Then after the said time of mourning is over it still stays down. Back in the day , it was only lowered for someone or something really important, now it only takes a deranged person to do others harm , then the flag goes back down. ☹️
When I was young and in grade school it was a honor and privilege to raise and lower our flag every day. I still feel that way to this day.
I also worked at a National Cemetery during college and proper flag etiquette was a
every day event. We took handling it correctly very serious. If I see the flag abused or misused, I have 0 problem telling whomever is responsible to rectify it quickly. I have been told everything from thanks , to get off my property.
Here's how you respect the flag..

 
That law is virtually unenforceable if the first amendment is in play.

I have no interest in facing the American flag… But by the same token if it goes to the supreme court you’re gonna have a hard time.

...And as others have pointed out having a flag a T-shirt or a flag anything piece of clothing that is not made out of an actual flag is obviously not an issue.
My personal opinion is that it is fine to have a flag on a piece of clothing, but anything that looks like it was made out of a flag is a no go for me. I really hate the shitty polo shirts that look like 40% of a flag. But this is just me.
