Norman Rockwell is really triggering to libs.

But that flag on the floor serving as a hobo pouch is a little triggering to me, I'm not gonna lie lol

I noticed that too, and did a quick squinty-eye.

But, look at it this way... The boy is going somewhere. He's got a plan, and he's determined. And it's his American flag (culture) that is literally & figuratively carrying everything he owns, everything important. It's like this... We honor the flag, we keep it lit, and hoisted high... but if you were alone & freezing in the wilderness, it would also be your blanket. In that pursuit of life, it's about the greatest honor you can give to it.

It took me a minute to remember that in the real painting, the hobo sack isn't old glory.

That's true. A good perspective. Just put it on the stool next to you and not the floor. :)

I applaud the effort.

The flag hobo sack ain't right. Don't put Old Glory on the floor.

The kid's t-shirt slogan ain't right. He's a kid. He's innocent still. Keep the profanity for the teenage harridans.

Can't get behind the image as a result.
