Wow, that's a really strange concept for me to grasp. In America a lot of people have their flags and shit everywhere, even the union jack (even though it can be considered redneck or racist or whatever) that is really just a strange concept to me. Then again white people aren't really allowed to say that they're proud to be white... which makes no sense whatsoever.
