What does a black American Flag mean?
Black flags have historically been used to signify that no quarter will be given. When translated into modern language, this means that captured enemy combatants will be killed rather than taken prisoner. The US Military and specific Law Enforcement units also have been known to use subdued or muted color versions of the American flag. This is typically in situations where the visibility of the standard red, white and blue would be too stark of a contrast with the surroundings, potentially compromising safety in hostile environments.
Can I fly this flag behind my vehicle?
That’s really not a good idea. Vehicle speed winds are comparable to a hurricane, and will more than likely cause the flag to fray or come apart.
