it is part of a flag. It doesn't matter if they cut up a whole flag to make it, or made a section of the flag, it still violates the code for the flag.

As used in this section, the term “flag of the United States” means any flag of the United States, or any part thereof, made of any substance, of any size, in a form that is commonly displayed.

No. It's not made from an actual flag. It's a stars-and-stripes design. WhiskeyGrinder May 28 #4

It's not clear that that part was ever an *actual* flag. Printing fabric with stars and stripes on it does not make it WhiskeyGrinder May 28 #8
