I agree with him. Look at the statistics for how many people cant find specific countries on a world map. THAT is general knowledge, and yet its only a fraction of people that know - Flag ettiquete? How could more than a fraction of the population possibily know that.

I think you expect too much from people if you think they should just know about flag ettiquete.
Anyone that gets angry/offended by an average citizen not knowing this is a little too patriotic and/or touchy, and should just remember that not everybody is from the military, and it is most certainly not an everyday fact - Because It didnt even occur to me, and i'm no idiot - I also know flags are treated with respect - But this particular rule I had no idea existed.

The destructive guy in the video needs to learn to control his emotions.
