在美国,没有其他任何象征能比国旗更为重要和扯动情感的,连国歌都是以颂扬国旗为主题。这首《星条旗永不落》是作者弗朗西斯科爱国情感的自然流露:在1812美英战争之初,弗朗西斯科被英军俘虏,囚禁在英国的军舰上,当他看到海岸堡垒上美国的国旗在英军猛烈的炮火中依然高高飘扬时,触景生情,心潮澎湃,一气呵成这首不朽的歌曲。在一般美国民众看来,国旗象征了美利坚民族的辉煌和荣耀,代表了国家的团结和伟大。为此,美国50个州中有48个通过了保护国旗不受玷污的法律。不过,就是在美国的地盘上,也有一批对自己政府不满的美国人以焚烧国旗作为表达自己观念的方式,来批评和抗议美国政府的一些做法。
In the United States, there are no other symbols that can be more important than the national flag and affect the emotions. Even the national anthem is celebrated with the national flag as the theme. This “stars and stripes never fall” is a natural expression of the patriotic feelings of the author Francisco: At the beginning of the 1812 US-Great War, Francisco was captured by the British and imprisoned on a British warship. When he saw the American flag on the coast fortress British violent artillery fire is still flying high, the touch of passion, emotionally, this song of immortality. For the average American public, the national flag symbolizes the glory and glory of the American nation and represents the unity and greatness of the country. To this end, 48 of the 50 U.S. states have adopted laws that protect the national flag from contamination. However, on the site of the United States, a group of Americans who are dissatisfied with their own government use the burning of the national flag as a way of expressing their ideas to criticize and protest some of the actions of the U.S. government.
