The prohibition was one of many side issues included in the mammoth $1.2 trillion package to fund the government through September.

I have zero problem with this. No US embassy should fly any flag other than Old Glory. No POW flags, no LGBT flags, nada. Full stop. These are US embassies representing all Americans, and the only flag we all live under is the Stars and Stripes.

Don't like that take? How about I lobby to fly a personal favorite. I'm actually partial to the one on the left. No one has an issue, right?

Wow what a strong opinion to have about something you only just learned about.
