I'm with the vexillologists on this one. Give me a cool flag, not a still generic flag now with words.
Adding more words to our flag to make it unique is such a poor idea I'm going to make draft a better flag and send it to my rep.
Share it here, but yeah we should do a new flag contest like Minnesota did
My thoughts exactly. I posted it on vexillology already so I'll cross post it.
I don't live in america but happened to stumble across this
This feels like the language right wingers would use with their pseudo-freedom
Live Free or Die is the NH state motto coined by Revolutionary War general and former NH man John Stark.
It was originally used by him as a toast to be raised an the anniversary reunion of the Battle of Bennington when he couldn't attend. The full quote being "Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils."
That said text on flags is bad.
