It did fly on White House grounds. If need be I will have to get the video.
Our country always flies the flag of a visiting emissary, which is customary, and other countries do the same for us. That is different.
As far as White House grounds are concerned, you have the fenced in area, and then you have the area where the national Christmas tree is and those things. It was in that area that the flag was raised.
Even though I don't feel anything was meant by the people raising it. I still find it unnecessary. A communist country with China's human rights and labor issues, is not something that should be celebrated on govt. grounds.
