“I would also warn about flying our flag upside down as a sign of protest since that is usually done by liberals and antiwar types again mixed messages vs dual messages.”

Ooops.. I now see that you beat me to it., but worth repeating.

Note: The LIBS are NOW THE ESTABLISHMENT...Hippies demonstrated against the Establishment... I am now leaning against upside down flag because so much conflict about it even here—however, it is a sign of distress and at least the demonstrators/hippies did something—I want to do something to show my dismay—

I educated myself to the issues, I called numerous “representatives” numerous times, I emailed, and no one cared :(

At least hippies were doing something to change things...they demonstrated against what they they did not believe in. Not saying that I agree with their sentiments, but if it is not wrong to fly flag upside down, fact that hippies did it should not be the issue IMHO.
