He shouldn't be stoned because he has more respect for the flag than most people. Doing anything but flying a flag in the appropriate way was seen as disrespectful before. I dont see it as being a disrespectful thing to display it where ever you can now though. I'm happy that some people in our country still have enough pride to do so.
You could say i'm a little patriotic myself, i have an American Flag tattoo from below my belt line to my arm pit that's over a foot wide. i don't see it as disrespect, i'm proud to be an American and i don't care who knows it.
So yes, i understand where you're coming from but you have to realize that times have changed a lot and just people flying our colors is a good thing.
