Now those yankees are pretty ass-backwards up there in the north. Ok ... here's how it started, one firefighter posted a cartoon that another black firefighter didn't like. So the black firefighter (Butler) took the cartoon down and replaced it with a sign that said "black man has no free speech". So the black fire fighter was suspended for a day for his freedom of speech sign.
So the fire commissioner makes a new rule that says - no stickers on any lockers...period. So FF Krapf took down all his stickers but the American Flag. Soooooooo quess what... he was suspended. And from that point on all hell broke loose. All kinds of protests and meetings....blah blah blah.
So then Butler.... the black firefighter comes to work the next day with a knit cap with the American flag flying upside down. Soooooooooooooooooo thats when everyone really got mad. Ok ok so all was resolved, Krapf got to keep his sticker, Butler wasn't suspended for wearing the knit cap with an upside down flag.
Yes people were angry with Butler for wearing the flag upside down. Now I personally have better things to do than argue over an upside down flag. I mean... depicting the flag upside down does have a meaning...
The American Flag should only be depicted when the country ...yes the big ole' US of A is in distress. the rules are: 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. So this leaves me totally mistified....
I mean if you remember the DNC Convention.... ok wait we are republicans. Ok at the DNC convention you needed a ticket to get into the convention. The funny part about the ticket... is the American Flag is depicted upside down... I kid you not.... take a look at the photographs below:
The DNC Convention ticket was a holographic image that uses Obama's head merging in and out of the flag background. The thing about it is.....THE FRIGGIN FLAG IS UPSIDE DOWN. Hmmm.... sign of distress.... you betcha' ...look at our country 9 months later. Makes me just giggle!!!!

An upside-down flag should only be displayed in distress. I say the ticket is correct, America as she was founded is in "Severe Distress", no doubt about that. Some don't realize just how closly the Democratic Party mirrors the Socialists Party. I thank God for every day he has given me with this Insight.
Even as a veteran I was ignorant to the fact that the Democrats more closly mirror the Socialists Party than they support the constitution.
Thank God I woke up and am currently in the process of waking others
Diana thank you for keeping this blog going because America as a whole needs to remember their roots.
We were founded on the premises of Freedom, Liberty, and Justice.
Rock....I couldn't of said it any better. We shall overcome!
