Is it normal to mount a jolly roger flag on the roof?

My husband thinks it's a great idea to mount a flag pole on the top part of the roof of our house and fly a jolly roger flag. We live in a nice neighborhood and I'm worried our neighbors will take offence. We are not pirates.

    Thanks for letting us know that you are not pirates. That is a load off my mind. At first I was like, Oh No! PIRATES!!! You have eased my troubled mind.

    I personally see no problem and if I was your neighbour I would have a good laugh about it.

    Maybe people will think your flagpole is poisonous.

    Oh, let him hoist the Jolly Roger. Do people in nice neighborhoods not have a sense of humor? Your husband sounds like fun.

    Full disclosure: I have a four-foot-tall winged stone gargoyle on my front porch. I may not be the best judge of appropriate exterior home decor.
