"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.

"Conservatism is the blind and fear-filled worship of dead radicals." -- Mark Twain

My father and all my uncles were too. My dad and closest uncle were in the navy. He tried to get into submarines but got rashes in the testing. So he was in PT boats. Another uncle fought in the Philippines . None of them were too chatty about what they went through.
The flag remains a piece of cloth. The Supremes addressed the issue. They decided it.
This does not make "speech" illegal but when it is used to harass or discriminate which are separate violations. Also, these do not apply to the general public but to:
"unlawful discriminatory practices in employment and covers entities including employers, labor organizations, employment agencies, joint labor-management committee controlling apprentice training programs, or any employee or agent thereof.N.Y.C."
"The term “employer” does not include any employer with fewer than four persons in his or her employ,"

NYC also requires employers and landlords to use the pronoun preferred by the employee/tenant.
"You can be fined for not calling people ‘ze’ or ‘hir,’ if that’s the pronoun they demand that you use"

This country was founded on the predication of FREEDOM. FREEDOM to choose. Many immigrants came from countries where they had no such freedoms. What you are suggesting- without realizing it- is taking away freedom under the auspices of patriotism. It simply wont work. If you so object to individuals expressing their freedoms, I suggest that YOU move to country where such expression is not permitted.
Please leave your Trump 2024 signs in your yard. That way, my dog will know where to take a dump.

That's pretty remarkable. I do know that towards the end of the war, the POW camp that my Dad was in become much more lax. They didn't have enough food to feed everyone, so they let them go to local farms for food. There were times when german soldiers would escort them back to camp, and they would take turns carrying the Germans gear. I guess at the end of the day, we're all just human.
If the whole air war interests you, I'd recommend a documentary called 'Deep Blue Sky'. Incredible footage of the missions. It's on HBO.
