Yes, although people did not intend them to be so.

That's a whole different issue. No problem
There actually are official and/or semi-official rules regarding the appropriate ways to display, handle, and dispose of the American flag -- which were once much more widely known and observed.
That's why there were a large number of free speech cases in the 1960's and early 1970's involving flag desecration.
