i hate african flags they almot alays have red to remember bloodshed aaargh!! The flag for Angola is pretty rude actually. ther eare idits wo will see this and think alf of Angola has HIV and the other has malaria and what the f**k is the sudden obsession of people with malaria in africa?? It's like malaria has taken over HIV a the disease du jour that must be eradicated.

The USofA flag is funny. The others are sad commentaries on their Nations.
