CHARLOTTE, N.C., May 28 (UPI) -- Coca-Cola will begin selling limited edition patriotic red, white and blue cans over Memorial Day weekend to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the United Service Organizations.

The patriotic design will be on some 16-ounce Coke cans and select value packs.

North Carolina is really throwing their poo on America this year. Don't they know and observe the Flag Code?

* The flag should never be used for any advertising purpose. It should not be embroidered, printed or otherwise impressed on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs, napkins, boxes, or anything intended to be discarded after temporary use.
* The flag should never have placed on it, or attached to it, any mark, insignia, letter, word, number, figure, or drawing of any kind.
* The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.

There needs to be a boycott. What do you say?

Like Budweiser rebranding as America for the rest of 2016?

I love how worked up Americans get over their flag.
I bet there are some that would save the flag from a burning building before their own child.

I don't see any stars there. No stars, no representation of the flag.

Actually looks more like a barber pole with a blue post-it note on it.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Yeah, I'm not getting worked up over that...



Hell, I don't drink sodas anyway.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Phrodough...


Quit shitting on the people who support our service man and women.

Flag? What Flag? Although it warms my heart that you see the flag of the United States of America whenever you see red and white stripes. But getting worked up over a can that has red and white stripes just seems silly.

 

[doctor_insanus]

Yeah, they put a "barber pole" on their cans to show off their "patriotism."

Suuuure.

That's the sound of my eyes rolling out of my head.

I guess shitting on the American flag is ok 4est if a rich enough corporation does it.

GAWD forbid any non conservative/corporate goons do it.....then it's a disgraces.


I guess some animals really are more equal in 4ests world.

What flag? The picture shows acceptable bunting. It has American colors, not an actual flag.

The OP needs to simply fuck off and stop whining about all the perceived slights in the world. His presence defaces this country.

It's not really the flag...

But they could have maybe done the POW/MIA flag or Yellow Troops ribbon instead... with a percentage of the money going to the USO, WWP, VFW, DAV, and other organizations for vets and their families...

1976

Everything had flags printed on it.
I am not sure if that decision had long term effects...

I don't think black is a very marketable color...

Amorica is the third album by The Black Crowes. Spawned from their unreleased scrapped album Tall, Amorica was released in late 1994 on American Recordings and re-issued in the UK in 1998 with two bonus tracks. The album was banned from some stores like Walmart and Kmart, due to its sexually explicit album cover, which features a woman's crotch wearing a United States flag thong with pubic hair sticking out. The picture was from the cover of a July 1976 Hustler magazine. The image was censored and replaced with a black background which only featured the triangle.[1] Amorica eventually reached Gold status in the United States, shipping 500,000 copies.

How True!

the flag code is meaningless. it has no enforcement and it shouldn't. it's just a fucking piece of clothe that's only pretty when it's burning. seriously, our flag is doping looking. too many fucking stripes, too many fucking stars.

You'd think that Coca-Cola could have done a lot better.

 

[pointless]

i'm guessing they'd make it a lot blacker because that seems to be their kick these days.

My wife and some other Knucklehead.

WTF? Nice looking barber poll. I like it. We just bought a 24 pack of Coke.
As far back as I can remember clothes and other things have contained RED, WHITE, AND BLUE, especially during hoidays and bike events.

Maybe you should tell some of those big burly bikers or rednecks they are not patriotic!

The trouble is most of you dont have enough to worry about already. Forget about our government fucking us. Forget about high gas and food prices. Forget about polution. Forget about that gay pervert standing next to your wife while she pisses!

We've got a Coke can to worry about!
