I thought it meant that the driver is probably just another pissed off a-hole that likes to blame everybody else including the government for his problems?

You hold onto that idea, while American society and the silent majority continues to wither in the corner. You’re going to continue saying “it doesn’t affect me” until it does, and there won’t be a damn thing you can do about it.

More people voted for Clinton than Trump, so when you say the "silent majority," you must be referring to liberals.

I blame the people who raised the millennials.
Seriously, I think it's dumb to blame a generation for current problems.

So dramatic. Are you a pre teen girl?

You should've followed him and carved "CHEATER" down the side of his car, but big enough where you run out of space, and end up having to write the E smaller, and the R underneath it like a Chinese

From what I was told, it’s major disrespect if it is showing that way without just cause. I’ve never seen it out that way in public before. Usually just on uber liberal political forums.

cKEESPORT, Pa. - The head of the Mon Valley Republican party hung a flag upside down on Monday -- the day of President Barack Obama's second-term inauguration.
Hanging for all to see outside of the party's meeting spot on Washington Boulevard, it caught the attention of many people. A lot of them told Channel 11 News that they don't believe the signal of distress was appropriate.
Channel 11's Julie Fine talked to the man behind the flag. He said that he doesn't "regret it at all" because "our nation is in a horrible place."
"I think some people that didn't know why the flag was flying upside down might find out, and some people that didn't agree with it might've talked to some people who agreed with it," Brent Kovac said.
The GOP official said he's so disappointed with the country's direction that felt he needed to send the one-day message, removing the flag at sundown.

Sounds like you don’t want to take responsibility.
Classic millennial.

signal for distress
Why do people think this country is in distress? Look, I am not a Trump fan. With that said, I am still thankful to live in this country. And maybe I am a little naive, I don't know.. But I feel like, no matter what, at the end of the day, things are really not THAT bad.
With that said, there is no telling why someone would have an upside down American flag on the rear window of their vehicle. It's easy to make assumptions, but there are people who are victims of stupidity and to them, they might think it means something completely different than what most people might see it as.
Just like when people disrespect the flag by wearing clothes with the American flag on it.. or buy products with the American flag on it.

There’s a big gun range off I-20 between Jackson and Meridian that flew a big flag upside down for a while during the Obama admin. Clearly visible for a long way.

You are a complete idiot (or troll) if you believe soneone with an upside down flag is the same as a chick with an American flag bikini on.
Dont be dumb. Regardless of the "meaning"
