There was no insult in what I posted.
If you were insulted or offended in what I wrote as my comment, that is your problem.
I will raise the Flag in the face of danger, not lower it.
I understand perfectly well what our nation is faced with and the Flag is a symbol of our perseverance in our just cause. To lower it, is to mourn. To fly it upside down is distress and a call for help, from where will the help come? If retreat is not our goal, then we shall raise the Flag high and press on in our sacred duties.
Do not insult us who choose to fly the Flag, full staff, unfettered, and in a stiff wind.

It may not be all who disagree with the flying of the flag upside down or at half mast, but
GreenLanternCorps for one, said it was an insult to do such a thing.
I for one take offense to anyone saying that I am insulting either this country or the flag for which I fought for.
I ask those those who would object to such a protest, if they would have flown their flag at half mast when Hitler was setting tings up to dissolve the Weimar Republic in Germany March of 1933? Well, I for one consider Obama to be nothing more than an Islamic Fascists who has plans on doing to America what Hitler did to Germany. The proof speaks for itself.
I guess my point is that we have a short time to fix things or we will forever wish we had. Maybe all those of you who will fly your flag at half mast not do not protest against those of us who will. But for anyone to suggest that to do so is an insult against the very country we love is an insult to those of us who do.
