But things are rarely that simple, and I find it hard to believe that him simply holding a flag was what caught their attention. Was he the only one with a flag? Surely he must have done something that other flag-carriers - who were left alone - weren't doing. If he was waving the flag in the policemen's faces, for example, then that would be disrespectful and a very bad idea.
He was the only one with a flag. He wasn't doing anything else (shouting, swearing, you name it, he wasn't doing it). Nor doing something with the flag, like waving it in someones face.
