Why is there gold trim on the American flag in military court?

It looks pretty. It has no other meaning.

That's actually not true. The reason there is a gold rim is because of Admiralty Law.

Whenever you see a gold rim on a flag it means you are accepting the use of Admiralty Law when you testify or have representation within that court. It basically is a set of laws that governs corporate actions. It is derived from Maritime Law. You as a person are a corporate entity of yourself in a Admiralty Law court. There is ALWAYS a monetary value attached to court decisions in this type of system. UK, US, Canada, Australia and other countries legal systems and governments are based on this Admiralty Law. Whenever you see your name in all capital letters that is your "corporate identity". Your drivers license birth certificate social security card and anything else pertaining to the government, debts, or trading of goods or services will have your name in all capital letters. This is not you it is your fake corporation set up at your birth to keep track of all your debts public and private.

hope this helps a little.
