qaleghqa'neS!

I'm wondering whether there are any canon-friendly Klingon banners or flags that I can fly in public that are not the very, very nazi looking red-white-black one.

I live in Germany and the alternative might even put me into legal trouble based on whether the judge is having a good day or not, and I just don't want to take any chances or arouse any undue attention from neighbors who don't know anything about Star Trek.

I know there's the green-yellow-red emblem that's much better, but the only full flags that I can see are butt-ugly, non-rectangular green banners from DS9.

There's also this really cool looking one from Star Trek VI apparently, but I don't know what the canon implications are or where to get one: Klingon Flag

Any ideas?

@mycatiskai @startrek I’ve always been uncomfortable with how much Star Wars fandom has embraced the iconography of the Empire.

Was recently at Disney world and in the Star Wars area there was only one small store with only Empire/First Order stuff and dozen or so places with 90% Rebel Alliance.

I don't think there is much ambiguity in Star wars that the Empire/First Order is the bad guys and have no redeeming qualities
