Hartley, you keep adding words and phases that are not part of the U.S. Flag Code, and treating your words and phrases as if they are part of the Code. Of course, they are not.

Those who see the current homoterrorism actions of the SCOTUS and its leftist supporters, or other actions by the Obama regime, or the SCOTUS genocide-by-abortion decision of 1973, as "extreme danger to life or property" do not have to restrain themselves from flying the flag upsidedown based on your personal opinions.

Well, Carl, you just fly your flag any way you please. (I know I said I wouldn’t post back, but I changed my mind.)

I do have to wonder, though, how effective your distress signal might be. If anyone has ever come to your assistance in response to your distress signal (which I doubt), what action were they able to take there and then to avert this “extreme danger to life or property”? If the answer is, as I suspect, “none whatsoever”, then how do you justify using the flag to request aid?

The inability to differentiate between being offended and actual physical harm seems to be characteristic of the liberal mindset. Indeed, I can recall leftists flying the flag upside down because they were offended by the actions of the George W. Bush administration. I thought it was absurd then, and I think it just as absurd now when so-called conservatives use this way of expressing unhappiness with the government. Liberal attitudes will out.

So you go ahead and do whatever you want with the flag. I doubt I will be able to convince you that it is contrary to the flag code, and I am damned well sure that you will not convince me of your views.

As the old saying goes: “I could agree with you, but then we’d both be wrong.”
