Should be a hanging offence. If flag burning is disrespectful so should hanging the national flag upside down. Pretty simple really

I was under the impression that when the US flag was flown upside down, it was a sign of distress or all is not well . . .

hmmm I thought flag upside down was a symbol of distress?


how does that equate to burning it?


I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

I rather they not hang the flag upside down! The flag does not equate to the scum in the White House it is a symbol of freedom and America. I would rather they find a different symbolic meaning to disagree with the corruption of this administration.

It is a symbol of distress. It does not equate to burning it. but I don't think it's being done appropriately here. I agree that they should find another means to convey their attitude towards the corruption and agenda that has become our government.

The only thing simple about your statement is the mind it came from. Some folks are educated far beyond their true intelligence.

If a liberal wants to know the difference between burning the national ensign and flying it upside down, just try doing it in my presence and see what happens.

I could see this idea catching. A lot of folks are concerned about the direction we are going. A silent protest. This is NOT burning a flag, this is telling Americans we are heading for trouble in their opinion. Two different issues. kwg

I didn't equate it with burning but don't think we are there yet. I rather just fly an Impeach Obama flag or something. I believe at this rate the upside down of "Old Glory" will be needed but not as much as able body citizens to take this country back from this government!

It's more normal now than disrespectful. Liberals made it so.

I firmly feel this should become the symbol of all concerned loyal Americans and a sign of protest.

A movement to do so all across the nation might get the attention of the Zero, who only hears about things on the news. smirk
