I have two residences, each in a different country. One in the United States of America, and one in Mexico.
While in America I fly the American Flag at my home, and no other. However it is acceptable to fly another countrys flag, so long as the American Flag is flown, and at a higher position than the other countries flag.
While in Mexico I fly the Mexican flag out of respect for that country. I do not fly a U.S. Flag while in Mexico. However I believe it would be permissable if flown below the Mexican Flag.
Inside my Mexico Casa (home) I have a U.S. Flag, Mexican flag, and POW banner, hanging from the ceiling in the living room.

To me it's about respect to others and their countries. Unfortunately respect has diminished over the ears for just about everything...........
