has it gotten into other groups?

2017-10-07 01:11:23 UTC  

Because if not, middle left is the obvious answer

2017-10-07 01:11:24 UTC  

No

2017-10-07 01:11:36 UTC  

But it's very popular, and no doubt will spread

2017-10-07 01:11:38 UTC  

The red circle makes it much cleaner than a white one

2017-10-07 01:11:51 UTC  

Top center is also very distinctive

2017-10-07 01:12:23 UTC  

The mid left one's extra red stripe is iffy. Hard to place meaning on an extra red stripe. White field around the blue makes it less cluttered.

2017-10-07 01:12:54 UTC  

Extra stripe?

2017-10-07 01:12:58 UTC  

I can get the symbol biggest on the top left, while retaining all the symbolistic qualities, which is what's important.

2017-10-07 01:13:03 UTC  

White makes the red jut out and look pointy

2017-10-07 01:14:59 UTC  

extra red stripe = blood and courage

2017-10-07 01:16:07 UTC  

gib minute

2017-10-07 01:20:14 UTC  

Ignore the gray around it

2017-10-07 01:20:26 UTC  

and not everything is perfectly symmetrical

2017-10-07 01:20:31 UTC  

but here's a gist of an idea

2017-10-07 01:20:57 UTC  

Is it too much white?

2017-10-07 01:21:39 UTC  

There's no red and it's not really based on the federal flag of the US

2017-10-07 01:22:15 UTC  

i think its good as an alternate

2017-10-07 01:22:23 UTC  

There's no need for alternate flags tho

2017-10-07 01:22:58 UTC  

as an amateur vexillologist who has submitted many rejected designs to my hometown

2017-10-07 01:23:03 UTC  

I accept this rejection

2017-10-07 01:23:28 UTC  

I want a flag that is strikingly similar to the current federal flag, but has our symbol on it, to be waved alongside the current federal flag

2017-10-07 01:25:15 UTC  

@Thötterdämmerung That's what I was thinking for patches. That design would be great for that

2017-10-07 01:26:27 UTC  

The blue outer rim would need to be thicker for patches, but yes that would look good, maybe some slight edits to the logo to make it embroider better.

2017-10-07 01:27:30 UTC  

Imagine that on a hat with a bump insert with the blue polo and khaki tactical pants.

2017-10-07 01:29:10 UTC  

It'd look good

2017-10-07 01:29:47 UTC  

Yea it would

2017-10-07 01:31:12 UTC  

Alternative

2017-10-07 01:32:23 UTC  

For patches I can see it

2017-10-07 01:32:55 UTC  

as long as you're

2017-10-07 01:32:59 UTC  

thinking about it

2017-10-07 01:34:26 UTC  

I kind of like the more monotone blue and white for a patch but I can get down with the red border

2017-10-07 01:34:52 UTC  

If we ever differentiate event security/shieldwall and regular demonstrators it could be a signifier

2017-10-07 01:34:56 UTC  

I can see why the city keeps rejecting your designs @Thötterdämmerung

2017-10-07 01:34:56 UTC  

or leadership could wear red

2017-10-07 01:35:23 UTC  

But for flags we fly on poles, I'm probably gonna stick with the half blue/half stripes
