Modifying the U.S. Customs Service Flag by placing stars in the canton in lieu of the U.S. Coat of Arms does not a legal flag make. Moreover, the nonsense story that you include with it is even more laughable.

"Pursuant to U.S.C. Chapter 1, 2, and 3; Executive Order No. 10834, August 21, 1959, 24 F.R. 6865, a military flag is a flag that resembles the regular flag of the United States, except that it has a YELLOW FRINGE, bordered on three sides. The President of the United states designates this deviation from the regular flag, by executive order, and in his capacity as COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF of the Armed forces." Every courtroom in the United States uses a gold fringed flag. Are you denying that our courts are under Admiralty Law?

I offered sources. They are solid. You didn't; instead playing the usual game of epithet. Read the sources and then refute the sources. That's how it's done here.

A better source can be found here:

The source that you cite, applies ONLY to the military, as it was issued by the President in his role as Commander in Chief. It does not apply to the Judicial Branch, you would need to find another source for that.

I don’t care to argue with someone who does not know what he is talking about and is clearly an adherent of some crazy conspiracy theory, so I bid you a very happy July 4th.
