The story today is that his wife flew the flag upside down because a neighbor called her a C U Next Tuesday.

I don't buy that bullshite. Makes no sense. You disrespect me, so I'll disrespect my country?

Isn't the upside down flag a symbol of the nation being in distress? Doesn't that obviously go to the election issue and not some gripe with a neighbor.

Stop the lies.

I flew mine upside down as well.

Anyone that says our country is not in distress clearly has their eyes closed.

According to the U.S. Flag Code, flying the American flag upside down is only meant to be done "as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property." wish these people would actually use the Flag Code.

At least Alito didn’t kill an intern in his office.

I heard Ginni Thomas went out there and helped him put it up that way.

There are worse things than flying the flag upside down.

Murdering your intern, for example.

Not that anyone ever did that, but if they did, it would be worse than flying the flag upside down.

Yes... and many here thought this was the correct definition for what was occurring. To you, it may have only been virtue signaling. To others, our country teeters in the balance right now.

The only danger Alito was in -- a Democrat, using it to their advantage - spotting the distress, sends in swat and shoots the Supreme Court Justice.

If Steve Buscemi is getting randomly smacked around in public.....I would be very careful if I were Joe Cuckborough.

Alito should respond by showing all the video footage of Democrats in-office claiming the 2016 election was stolen or endorsing BLM rioting against the government in 2020 and asking why they haven’t been impeached for treason.

I took my flag down the day Jotato took office and it won't go back up until a republican is in the WH.

So a supreme court justice should not fly a flag upside down?

If he would have burned it and yelled "death to the US"... that would have been fine.

Or waved the flag of a foreign nation in the capital building after stealing and sending billions in tax dollars to that foreign nation

Sign of distress.

Has nothing to do with national distress.

Stop being a Karen.
