Just some food for thought... Why isn't the flag at half staff on the Whitehouse?...

... Especially in light of the one police officer that died defending all our congressman as well as the vice-president! 😡


This was brought up by Chris Christy himself just now.

If you mean flying the flag at half-staff for the attempted subversion of our Democracy, you're barking up the wrong tree, that would never happen as long as tRump is President. As for the Police Officer/veteran, while tragic, the flag doesn't get flown at half-staff because one of us died, otherwise it would never be fully flown, sadly, that is something implicitly understood by any PO or veteran, it's not disrespectful.

@spjennifer

Full Congress voted for this, NO OBJECTIONS

Yet still the WHITEHOUSE flag is still not at half mast!

@DeWayfarer Fair enough, I hadn't seen that yet. I didn't say it wasn't deserved, it was! and for the WH not to follow or hell even lead by doing that first is most inappropriate but i'm not at all surprised ☹️

@DeWayfarer In reading the article, I noted they said that pipe bombs had been found at both RNC and DNC headquarters, this is further evidence that someone intended to subvert our Democracy. These fuckers didn't care who they killed, they were just out for blood and mayhem, real terrorists and should be prosecuted as such!

@spjennifer you are so correct on that!

Just hope some here understand that.
