Flying American flags in front of gas stations is fairly common here on Long Island. I don't really understand it, there's little American at most gas stations. This one at least does auto repairs and is not just a convenient store and filling station.
Many gas stations around here are run by foreigners, mostly Turkish, and probably grossly underpaid. The station across from my house has a man that seems to be there twenty-four seven. When we were building our house I'd stop there for coffee a few times a day, he was always there.
This gas station is in Ridge. I was waiting for a parade an thought this was visual pollution and a misuse of our flag. Our flag should not be used as a sales tool.

That's when you want to holler "uncle!" Good grief! Enough is enough.
It does seem to be a bit of overkill. Maybe the owner won the flags in a contest.
i wonder what betsy ross would think?
probably glad whe didn't have to sew them all by hand.
