We ain't gonna lower the flag on the 4th of July.

Is this normally done after a mass shooting?

The paper slandered the guy. They didn't help "free speech" any by abusing it.

There is already a thread on this.
I think it is absurd to lower the flag during july 4th because of a office shooting.

Check the webcams in Chicagostan and see if the flags ever rise above half staff then report back.
Oh wait a minute, WHITE local newspaper reporters and salesclerks are more important than the ... Naw, say it ain't so!

Simply asking what the precedent is.

Personally I think he should have them lowered on the 5th.
But, as usual, the media is making more out of this than there is.

The same people who blast trump for offering "thoughts and prayers" freak out when he doesn't lower the flag.

They absolutely did not slander him. The guy’s entire case against the paper was posted here a week back and the dude was an absolute loon with absolutely no evidence of slander. The paper acurately conveyed who he was.
That said, yea, unequivocally not an attack on freedom of speech. But we also don’t need to tell bold faced lies to convey that. This was just a major fricktard doing major fricktard things. No need to paint it as anything more than that.

Is this directed at me or did you just reply on the last post?

1.) It wasn't an attack on the press, it was personal.
2.) You hate the first amendment.
3.) frick off.

It was freaking not. It was about a guy who had a personal grudge against specific people at this specific paper. It had nothing to do with anything else.
Goes to show you how desperate these people are to spin narratives.

Obama did it for Whitney Trump should do it for those no name rappers recently shot as well

Lowering the flag to half staff for this crime would not be appropriate.
It is traditionally for the memorialization of prominent governmental officials.
Anyone outraged by this is low T and likely allows dogs to lick peanut butter from his testicles.
