People who fly the flag upside-down on a big day for democracy do?
Can you name me a single example of one? You seem to think it is the norm. So, naming ONE single example should be cake. I think the neighbor with the upside down flag is a whiny little douche. But, that's as far as i can go.

That should turn out well for the 911 caller.

It seems to be a common thing today. I've seen pictures all over FB, even some chains like Mcdonalds have them upside down (individual ones, not the entire chain).

I thought an inverted flag was only a sign of distress for boats and ships.

That's kind of insulting to Republicans that wouldn't do such a thing.
It's unfortunate, but there are always going to be whackos stealing a legitimate, solid, conservative platform to pull such a stunt. Alright then. Ya got me. So who else had their flag waving upside down today? That's what I thought. Stop being so sensitive.

Not one. I am a bit more selective as to who I associate with. So which of the liberals above beat their wives? Which has 50 guns, or do they split them 25/25? Do they both get their news from Limbaugh?

No it's not. He's exercising his rights, which are what the military helps to protect.

I work at a hospital. We have to detain patients sometimes (especially the kids) so law enforcement can come in to resolve the issue

Yeah, and I'm sure most of the wife beaters you encounter talk to you about their fondness for Rush.
