Is it okay to fly your flag upside-down?

With the farce conviction of President Trump, tension in America rose to a serious simmer this past week. Even people on the Left saw through the political lawfare and election interference and started calling it out. Almost immediately, images of upside-down flags appeared on social media and in neighborhoods.

For those who don’t know, it is not disrespectful nor illegal in our Republic to fly a U.S. flag upside-down.

United States Code Title 36, Chapter 10, §176 (a) reads as follows:

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.

Think. People are now flying flags upside-down to signal that the country is in extreme danger. They believe, with substantial evidence to support them, that Marxists have taken over critical functions of our government, thus putting at risk our system of government and our way of life.

I’m okay with everyone flying their flags upside-down. But don’t stop there. Attend the boring meetings. Knock on doors and talk with neighbors. Make a difference by engaging with your local system.

As Benjamin Franklin said, “It’s a Republic – if you can keep it.”
