An American flag hung upside down is a distress signal. Someone should call the ATF, FBI, CIA, local PD, state PD, and attorney general and tell them bloody murder is probably happening at that location because of the distress signal. Then he can foot the bill for crying wolf.
While he is a flaming @$$hole, it's his right to do so. As well as it is the right of others to express their dislike of his actions.
BTW, I was fully prepared to do the same if, perish the thought, sKerry had won just to pi$$ off my liberal neighbors.
Yes there is. According to The United States Code, Title 36 Chapter 10:
§176. Respect for flag No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.
If there is no emergency, or instances of extreme danger to life or property, the authorities have the power to make him display it properly.
So, when people stay away from his business, now he can blame Bush for it's failure. How convienient!
I fully agree.
" BTW, I was fully prepared to do the same if, perish the thought, sKerry had won just to pi$$ off my liberal neighbors."
When Clintoon won in 91, I did the same thing for several days, however my flag was on a flag pole.
My neighbor came over a few days later and asked me if I knew that I had the flag upside down.
I said thanks for telling me, I had no idea. I changed it's position to upright and suffered like the rest of us for eight years. ;)
Four years ago, quite a few freepers were displaying the flag upside down during the recount fiasco.
It's not quite the same thing, but it is political expression.
"If there is no emergency, or instances of extreme danger to life or property, the authorities have the power to make him display it properly."
To the fatalistic liberal losing to Bush is an extreme danger to life and property. Just another example of how liberals turn common sense on it's ear.

Is this guy in distress? If so, then I must the Waaaaahhhmublance.
Extremely cool and trustworthy looking dude, especially the crushed pink cowboy hat. Just who I'd want for a lawyer. If I were not a law-abiding citizen, I might suggest calling the cops (from a pay phone) every day and reporting drug selling activity at this guy's address.
A dirtbag among nutballs!
Did you send the information to the Mayor, City Council and police department?
His answer which I have never forgotten was, "You're FofS ENDS about 1 mm from my ear."
This guy's insult of Bush was really stupid, for he insulted me by his display. Don't I have a right to tell him to wise up?
The old theological seminary that sits at the base of Mt. Tamalpais
I admire his study of cult "indoctrinations"; however, when is he going to sue Marin county on the basis of their au-so-trendy indoctrination of their own citizens? How about the Public Schools? Nah. I read parts of one of his cases long ago.. the problem I had with it is: He doesn't hold an individual up to account for their willful joining of a cult. Nope. He knows these are big pocket organizations, too.
LOVE the photos! Thank you. I once lived just down the hill from the Seminary. And during one of the floods, we all moved our cars and our families up to the Seminary parking lot. On a full moon night... the skyline surrounding the Seminary is surrealism to the max: beautiful. Resembles the castle in "Pink Panther Strikes Back".
