Before I got too upset, though, I'd ask them about it. Learn the story behind it and, if there is no story and they are just ignorant or disrespectful, then be angry about it.

That's a good thought........but.........I read an article about proper display of the flag, and it said that if a flag is worn, torn, faded, shredded, etc, the correct thing to do is to take it down and destroy it or put it away. Never display a worn flag.
Unless the artlicle was full of poop.
