Like any other symbol, the flag means different things to different people. To me, it's a daily reminder of a couple hundred years of sacrifices that have been made to preserve liberty in this country. It helps me remember to be grateful to those who fought and bled for my liberty, as well as to God that He supported the founding of this nation.

Flying the flag only on public buildings, to me, would be much like going back to the days when only priests were allowed to read and study the scriptures. A country founded "by the people and for the people" should be acknowledged by the people, not just public institutions.
