The flag doesn’t look like one that represents any country.

My theory is that the flag has something to do with the doping scandals in cycling. Any ideas?

Some one is flagging my videos because they don’t like me. I’m so tired of people flagging peoples videos because of race, sexual orientation, religion or political views. I want everyone able to watch my videos whether they have a account or not. Can I prevent anymore flags? Can I find out who flagged me? And can I reverse the flag or disputed so the inappropriate label is removed so everyone can see my videos.
