Let's be real here. This is about skin color and nothing more.

I don't think so. There was a store run by Jewish people in the Lower East Side. They had put out a flag post 9/11 that over time became tattered shreds of a flag to the point it was unrecognizable. A number of us called and sent letters asking the owner to remove the flag as it was a disgrace. I offered to even replace the flag with a new one from my own pocket including the cost of installing it.
Eventually after a few months the proprietor took the tattered rags down and did not replace the flag.
If you let me know were the norwegian flag is flying above the american flag, I'd be happy to send letters and phone calls to the proprietor. Had I known of this issue I would have sent letters and phone calls as well.
