Ive hung the flag upside down every Independence Day for the last few years..
America is in distress...
The first thing I saw was “blacked intersections and played drums.”
Well then.
Is he thinking of a Nat Turner type of rebellion..
Were spears chucked?
Keep up the rioting and looting, then there will be even more dead Gentle Giants to protest.
This is from a flag etiquette site:
U.S. Code, Title 4, Chapter 1, Section 8(a) states, The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property. The emphasis is on extreme and imminent and personal. This practice should not be used as an objection to war or other government policies.
In other words, the U.S. flag is not for expressing your little snits.
“In other words, the U.S. flag is not for expressing your little snits.”

Yeah,like these idiots care. Rules are for other people.
.
Lets see, another criminal armed this time and shooting at cops is killed and the crowd riots. Let them stew in thier own sh##. create a perimeter and do not enter
I know. It just irks me when people think that their disgruntlement somehow constitutes actual physical peril. Get over yourselves.
I think that a display of the U.S. flag upside-down should be treated exactly like a 911 call. Emergency services should be dispatched to the location at once, and the penalties for a false alarm using the flag should be at least as severe as those for making a false 911 call.
chant , loot and scoot.
sounds like the Olympics!
or a New Rap song!
as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property

Yes that’s why I do so...
Really. You yourself are exposed to extreme personal danger, sufficient to justify flying the flag as a distress signal, every Independence Day, is that right?
Dissatisfaction with the government does not qualify as extreme and imminent peril, in my opinion. If you wouldn’t call 911 under a particular set of circumstances, you have no excuse to trivialize the use of our flag as a distress signal under those circumstances.
I don’t expect you, or anyone else who equates annoyance to actual danger, to understand this.
well lets see kid..
since 2008 Ive been exposed to danger from Islamics who want to kill me, the latest faction being ISIS..
and now a deadly disease that’s allow to come my way...
all along theres illegal aliens who could kill me and mine on the roads or in our homes..
plus my property is in danger from invasion by illegal aliens and local rioting Fergusonites and Islamics.....
etc
Very, very well put.
I don’t see it ending well. I hope I’m wrong.
Once again, flying the flag upside-down is a request for immediate physical assistance from anyone who sees it. It is not meant as an indicator of a hissy fit about things that make you unhappy.
I didn’t think you’d get it, and I was right.
No kid..
youre the one who doesn’t get it...
Obama’s legacy. Putting civil rights back to the 1950-60s when the riots were king supreme. Pull over a black and a riot breaks out. Simple as that. Obama and Jessie, Al, all the race mob gang have destroyed what progress had been accomplished. Now, blacks, whites, Hispanics, all hate each others guts to the max. Thanks to the Obama race war.
That’s as far as I got in the article. LOL.
Apparently you can.
I don't think security footage shows a gun when I am carrying, either.
