You should hang your flag up if you are celebrating some achievement your country has attained but not if it is in response to some populist movement steered by left or right wing loons. Ignorant masses are far more dangerous than immigrants and are the fools clever tyrants come to power on but if you are simply proud of your country or wish to celebrate something and want to raise your flag on a pole on your own private property within local by law and planning regulatory guidelines you have no reason not to and nobody has any reason to object.

By the way going off on a tangent here but your whole "illegal immigrant crisis" is a ploy or better yet only part of a pretext to bring about the nescessity to have a new digital surveillance ecosystem that may one day be required to enter McDonalds,the cinema theatre, Football stadium,Bus,Train or even certain public spaces. It will be a global initiative and countries are figuring out the best ways to bring this system about. If you look at workplaces like banks in major cities and how they are adapting new intrusive technologies stop theft, fraud and unauthorised entry into their buildings you should get the picture once you can envision such an application rolled out throughout the whole public/commercial sectors now that AI, facial recognition cameras and biometric identities can be used with wearables or other devices  .....all for your safety of course and to keep those scary people at bay  

It seemingly is just far more difficult to implement these technocratic totalitarian measures ( many will think it is a great idea of course) in pesky liberal democracies unless the population is  adequately brainwashed,frightened or whatever to at least a sufficient level that you can at least get a majority of ignorant masses to go along with.

I think after the covid crisis we have learned that the majority of people will behave like a herd of animals when it comes to a crisis or are desperate and desperate measures just happen to be ready to roll out.
