British people (please no overseas woke knobs), why would people need police protection for putting up British flags in Birmingham, Britain?

Apparently some Councils are taking them down Nationalism is out nowadays, my Council in Caerphilly so far have turned a blind eye to flags flying from lamp-posts on Caerphilly mountain.
@senghenydd Nationalism is not out; racism is. And that's why the majority of British people are flying the flags.

@wishforthenight Never had any problems where I live, although I suspect there's some truth in what you've said - pity the world's so upside down at the moment.

Seems there's a flag thing here in the U.S. as well. Beside the gas station flew an American flag for years. It kept getting torn down and now it's just a naked flag pole.

Do you have a specific instance in mind?

Based on personal observation, it might be because the would-be flag erector shouted racial abuse at a group of young men shortly before embarking upon his chivalrous mission, thereby leaving himself vulnerable to reciprocal action.

@SunshineGirl Just curious, why a sad face about a national flag being flown in that nation? Many nations fly their flag everywhere

@Englishadverbs I am sad when part of a nation uses what should be a symbol of unity and fellowship to intimidate and belittle other members of the same nation.

@SunshineGirl Have you told the police? These other members of that nation must always have known what that nation's famous flag looked like
