Nope, can't help ya.

I shed my blood in a foreign country in defense of that flag.

I love it too much to use it as a tool of protest.

That's the kind of crap that liberal fools have done and I refuse to be a part of it.

I'll fly it and I'll fly it proudly, but not upside down.

No offense intended.

I agree.

However, the way things are going, the time may come...

Fly it that way when there is a real emergency. You may still have to fly it upside down in the future.

Amen brother...

Fly a different flag in protest...there are many to choice from but let’s not soil Old Glory...she has been tarnished enough already.

Time for us to fly her proudly and restore our country to the great land of liberty and law.

The next great civil war will be fought to abolish political correctness...

Nothing says you can’t fly two American flags on the same pole, one upside-right and one upside-down.

But I do like the “Don’t tread on me” slogan....if you [or anyone here] is in an open-carry state, I encourage you to use the right. I’ve used it a lot of times this year.

I agree.

I love my country and all the flag represents.

My father was in the S Pacific in WWII.

I fly my flag with pride.

Bless you and all you have done.

I would feel very wrong flying the Flag upside down.

OTOH, I also wish to protest the Fascist in the White House.

So I fly this American Flag:
