This was one of several pictures of American flags in Boston via UK Daily Mail. A BBC editor had earlier in the week noticed a laid back reaction to the terror bombings, and no "ramped up patriotism:"
4/16/13, "Boston bombing: A changed US reaction to terror," BBC, Mark Mardell, North American Editor
"Less than 24 hours after the Boston bombings, I
was watching a vivid parade through the centre of Washington - indeed
between two of the most sensitive security sites in the world, the
Capitol and the White House.
.
In honour of Washington DC Emancipation Day, bands blared out their tunes and girls gyrated down the middle of Pennsylvania Avenue. And no-one seemed too worried....
The mood in America after the Boston bombings generally seems one of
sadness and horror but not one of anger or ramped-up patriotism. This is
not 9/11."...
