In reply to ds. I understand it was a rhetorical Question, but just had to clarify.

In reply to ds. DS... you just answered your own question with the US Code. It may have been a sign of disrespect, but the way I see it, it is a signal of distress. A distress call to all Americans that this country and it's laws for certain groups, is in deed in distress, and needs help with putting the law back in the hands "OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE".

Why is the US Flag diplayed Upside Down?

The upside down U.S. flag is an official signal of distress. It is not meant to be, and is not officially recognized as any type of disrespect when so displayed for the right reasons. To the contrary, here is the relevant part of the US Code of Laws regarding how to fly the flag when in distress:
THE FLAG CODE
Title 36, U.S.C., Chapter 10
As amended by P.L. 344, 94th Congress
Approved July 7, 1976

§ 176. Respect for flag: No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.
(a) The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.
Most individuals who have served in the military service of our nation will (or should) recognize this signal.
As a result of the many traitors and enemies we as a free people have, both foreign and domestic, as a result of the many unconstitutional acts, legislation and atrocities passed and/or committed against US citizens and their life, liberty and property, and as a result of policies that have allowed (and continue to allow) enemies of this nation to enter in large numbers through a porous border policy, I believe the life, liberty and property of US Citizens are in dire danger and distress.

This is exactly what needs to happen! Giving back is one sure way to address the stupidity and hatefulness of their sign in front of the fire dept. Let us follow this lead, none of us should be afraid of what is just.

I love it. THAT’S how you fight back! Those of us here in Florida could learn a lesson from that guy. For example, we’re not allowed to put up ANY holiday “lighting” or decorations up even during Christmas. So, our landlord put white lights all along the house in December and called it “security lighting”. It’s still up today…….Love that guy. Good move!

If the local government is going to act as Nazi Gestapo agents then the Nazi flag seems most appropriate. It must be nice to live in a community where the only threat is presented by RSO’s. All other violent crime under control…amazing!
