I never seen the flag at half mast so much in my life

No way America is in this much turmoil



We’ve had a lot reasons to lower the flag lately. It’s sad but it’s true and every time it’s lowered it’s been for a good reason.


I just watched the news last night and a man with his 5 year old son and wife were sitting at a cafe in Seattle at the Space Needle and he decided he was going to stab his wife to death in front of their 5 year old son and a shite ton of tourist.

Then he tried to get the police to shoot him in a standoff. Luckily they tazed him and he will be held accountable

But now this kid is fricked for the rest of his life and the cycle will probably continue.


We really need to do something about the mental health of this country. It’s getting OOC

I agree with Ponchy. Just the fact that we don't know why it's lowered tells you that it has lost the meaning it was intended for.

I agree with you in regards to mental health

But the flag at half mast isn’t for this purpose, now had the president, vp, Mattis, etc passed away, or Benghazi attack, 9/11, etc.
