The REAL issue here is that there’s another flag flying ABOVE the U.S. Flag!

This is a misuse of the signal. Good attention grabber though.

I think all Gulf Coast states should fly at the very least their state flags upside down.

I’m unsure myself.

Hoping someone else here will know.

I’m prior service and I take no offense in this. If an American liberal can burn the flag to send a message, an American patriot can fly it upside down to send a message as far as I’m concerned.

Personally, I’d like to see every home in America fly the U.S. Flag upside-down.

We are in great distress, & the worse is yet to come.

“This is a misuse of the signal.”

Historically speaking, perhaps so.

My flag is being flown upside down (with a Gadsden flag beneath it...24 hrs a day, lit at night.

As stated in my profile.....we have soldiers, this very day, fighting for and dying for all that our Flag represents.....all the while, our nation is being systematically destroyed from within. It will remain so until all communists, marxists, maoists, and socialists are OUT of OUR White House and our Republic restored.

I already have an upside down US flag, a Gadsden flag and when Alaska has some form of statewide disaster I will fly its flag upside down.

I think this is also used as a symbol akin to an SOS if one is in severe danger.

In our church every Sunday, we say the pledge to the American flag first, and then to the Christian flag, and to the Bible.

Pledge to the Christian flag.....

I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag
and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands.
One Savior, crucificed, risen, and coming again,
with life and liberty for all who believe.

Pledge to the Bible.....

I pledge allegiance to the Bible,
God's Holy Word,
I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path,
I will hide its' words in my heart,
that I might not sin against God.
.
