This is a great sight to see but I do resent the upside-down flag I see off to the left.

Flying the flag upside down is a maritime distress signal. Our country is in distress, so it is not inappropriate.

(a) 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.

I believe it's suitable given today's political atmosphere.
