    They do this in Europe too though (not with the US flags, obviously).

    Norway is particularly famous for flying the flag everywhere.

      Fair, I have also seen plenty of flags in Denmark.

      As a German it weirds me out. We don’t do that kind of nationalism any more.

        Switzerland also. People have proper flagpoles in their garden, it’s quite stange.

      I see a good bit of flag waving in the Netherlands as well. In France though I’d be weirded out if I saw one besides on official buildings and stuff.

        Yes, if you see a private home in France with the French flag, you’d pretty much assume the people living there are far right extremists. Normal people use the Brittany flag instead.
