Send a message to Washington on Inauguration Day

[Cardinal]

I don't believe in violence. But do believe in protecting oneself and family if necessary. Wednesday morning Jan 20th my American flag will be placed up side down. Which means the country is in distress. And neighbors and people I know who have flag poles. Will also turn their flag up side down but also half staff. Cannot support a president who is a rich Global Elitist with his partners. That caused the loss of our great nation. It IS NOT illegal to display our flag. Nor is it breaking the law. And no way is a violent action. It's my right as a citizen to show my grief and loss what used to be a great nation. My tv will be off also. One statement made "To Fundamentally Change the United States" made by Obama. Came to the realization it came true. And if you truly think of what has transpired over the years. Maybe you can realize it yourself. God Bless America the country that I love.

You have the right to your protest. Just keep it peaceful and you’re all good.

Who told you to hang your flag upsidedown?

pretty silly question since I didn't say I was hanging a flag upside down. I respect those who's rights allow them to do so though as a form of protest.

 

[Hypothetical]

vote, do community outreach, try to persuade people to join your cause, find places you can compromise with people of another point of view, lobby (preferably without bribery campaign contributions), try to find commonalities with other Americans, etc.

I assume you all then condemned the summer riots and autonomous land as a childish immature, and dangerous thing to do , right?

But you could supported a creepy President that was corrupt to the core, narcissistic and racist, a divider and no kind of AAmerican leader WHATSOEVER. Thanks for playing.

Oh and if you ever get to meet Donnie, I would fold my hands in my lap if I were you assuming you know what I mean.

Displaying the flag upside-down? What next? Kneeling during the national anthem?

Same difference, they just don't see that one is as valid as the other.

It would be interesting to see Biden supporters and Biden deniers 10 feet apart from, both screaming, USA!, USA!, USA!, at each other...

Every person, left or right, but in recent days it's only been righties who uses the US flag to make a political statement is in violation of
4 U.S. Code § 8.Respect for flag (g)

The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.

Which group has been seen in recent times with flags shown in these photos?

What do you think of bikinis made from the flag, or drapes, or truck upholstery?

Kneeling during the anthem is done by "sons of bitches" who disrespect the flag, while "patriots" display it upside down.....I think that's how its understood way over there on the right.

Why those people are 'true' patriots, doncha know?

4 U.S. Code § 8.Respect for flag (d)
The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker’s desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.

Its every American's right to be an asshole as long as they don't break the law. Flags have been at half staff at the village for all the Covid deaths for quite a while. 42 more hours and we can officially say goodbye to the malignant narcissist scumbag POS grifter and traitor.

Deplorable

deplorable neighborhood

-----------------------------

If I were Good Ole Joe I'd work out a deal with Mexico and Honduras where they send us the people who live their that want to come here and we send them Trumpists in return .

To pull this off we'd need to sweeten the pot or they would never go for it. We could also give them say $20,000 for ever deplorable they take off our hands.

Thoughts?

That's all good and well, but in my opinion, you flag should have been flying upside down for the last four years.

 

[noonereal]

after having seen leftists burn it time and again, I would think you would be used to much worse done to the flag.

Can you please offer a link. I have not seen anyone on the left burn a flag since the 70's.

Thanks

I wonder if you went blind in the 80's or did not watch a decent news source this past summer.

well maybe you can after all, i am feeling generous.

Leave it to "patriots" to dishonor the flag with such a childish display... Why not just throw it in the toilet while you are at it... On the bright side, since Trump signs have gone out of vogue, it will make it easier to identify the idiot on my block.

He’s following the flag code, what makes it a dishonor?

the fact that he's a Conservative.

Factually speaking, you’re wrong when you say that your displaying the American flag upside down isn’t illegal. It is, because you would be doing so as a manner of political speech, not because of any actual imminent danger.

The actual distinction makes the difference.

Having said that, as a career military man, I don’t give one single shit what you do with your piece of nylon cloth.

Your symbolic resistance means nothing.

If it makes you feel better, and doesn’t involve uncalled violence, knock yourself out.

"Not My President!" has become pretty popular since 2016.
No reason to believe it should be denied to anyone, now that the left's ever expanding Overton Window.

No. Not treasonous. Free speech.

I recently saw them being used as weapons to brutally beat police officers during a terrorist attack on our capital...
