How is it something to be proud of, being born totally by accident in a particular country? If you'd earned it that might be a subject of pride.

Myself, I hate flags and religion - they cause wars....

Rather look at the flag than your avatar.

If im a racist simpleton for flying my countries flag what are you for giving a child a b****y shotgun

Oh boy....      

1) Just because you fly a national flag, it doesn't necessarily mean you're someone who is a nationalistic racist

2) Just because you don't fly a national flag, it doesn't necessarily mean you're someone who doesn't support their country

3) If you fly a national flag from your car and can't take some good-natured ribbing about it without resorting to heated defensive comments, maybe your should consider spending your money on some anger management therapy instead of flags for your car

I posted this funny link in a humour website in another thread and someone actually got the hump, saying it was offensive.    If you do find that link offensive, you might wish to read and study this.  Or download a sense of humour.

It's just a flag.  And in the current situation, it's about displaying support for the national football team, which is great, but goodness me people, get a grip already.  Lighten up, Francis.

And six years ago, when this was actually posted, there was quite a different mood in the air regarding these flags.

That was me. The point is - it's not funny. The link seems to be dead now, but paraphrasing it said : "Anyone in a manual trade is stupid". That's not satire by any definition.

Though I did chuckle at the sugar in tea bit.
