when a soldier dies in Iraq we shoud put a flag at half mast the next day

[sam sarrha]

in front of ut homes as a sign of protest.

1. Wouldn't that be a sign of mourning?

2. if you want to protest

hang the flag upside down.

as long as bushco is in power, you'll never have your flag a full mast anyway.

7. Hanging the flag upside down is a sign of distress

[nostamj]

8. exactly!

this nation IS in DISTRESS while buscho is in power.

[Columbia]

9. I suppose you could say that

But when police, fire engines and ambulances show up at your place, don't say I didn't warn you.

3. excellent point

I like it

4. If you haven't noticed, all flags are at half-mast.... PERMANENTLY!

I have yet to see a flag at full-mast since they finished the Reagan funeral 8 days ago.

6. it's 30 days for an ex-prez

IIRC

5. So We Would Be at Half-Mast Perpetually

Sounds right to me. Till we get the eff OUT of there.
