Unless it's the World Cup which I can sort of understand, flying one outside your house / window pretty much has the same connotation as an American flying a rebel flag.

It's ashame the England flag has had stereotypes and has been polluted , as now people think of chavs and EDL members .

But an England flag ISN'T offensive ,it use to be patriotic and people could just be England supporters . But the Great Britain flag is very patriotic and I prefer that to the England flag if I'm honest .

I know it's not the same but the Confederate flag in America offends alot of people as historically it brought so much pain and has bad connotations attached to it ,but does that mean every American that has one is racist ?! . The American flag is more friendly and patriotic of course though.

When I lived in New York there were flags on most of the houses or in the gardens,there was no special days for it,they are just proud very proud as we should be.

But a flag or two? I would think they are football fans. We have one hanging on the trampoline right now

Your comments in themselves are agenda-driven racism based on hatred in my opinion.
