"No Honor Justified On Veterans Day"? Why, little lady, how would you like a visit from a steroid popping, special ops "mechanic" who can turn your head around so you can watch where your cute little butt has been? These problem solvers were originally designed and built to kill red Guatemalans and Vietnamese commies but they'd be more than happy to rape and kill an American housewife who worships some non existent principle of "free speech". (that goddam internet again. Somebody needs to be killed although we don't know who just yet) And, RickyJ, in 1939 (74 years after the "official cessation of hostilities" Gone With the Wind was released in theaters nationwide. Clark Gable warned that "There isn't one cannon factory in the whole South"., while explaining why the Confederacy had little chance of prevailing over the industrialized "Nawth". (if you'll pardon the goddam expression, Colonel) I'd like nothing better than to believe that The Rothschilds were the puppeteers who manipulated the South into secession. ("Secessionists must be swept away like the Jewes of Old"_Col. James M. Montgomery, Union colonel and "staunch abolitionist who used extreme measures against pro-slavery populations."_wiki as quoted from the film GLORY) But, where is the proof of this unseen hand? It seems plausible but I'd like some evidence if you have it. And, noone222 and GreyLmist, flying the Nawthern victory flag inverted and at half staff would be a good way of signaling your county sheriff (and his SWAT team looking for some real world trigger time) that you're building bombs in your workshops. And, if you have ammo reloading components and a threaded pipe nipple and caps for both ends in your plumbing repair supplies you'll be guilty of "possession of illegal bomb making components". So, you may want to inventory your homes before signaling that you're in need of remedial thought cleansing. (or perhaps transorbital lobotomies with no official record of the procedures as was the case with the very public anti govt Frances Farmer, who failed to respond to "lovingly administered therapeutic experimental drugs and being forced to eat her own feces")
But HD, if I flew the Confederate flag upside down at half staff, it wouldn't look like a distress signal. It would still look right side up. ;)
Right. Of course this isn't true for the Bonnie Blue Flag. In the 1936 novel by Margaret Mitchell and the 1939 film Gone with the Wind, Rhett Butler decides to call his newborn daughter "Bonnie Blue Butler" when Melanie Wilkes remarks that her eyes are "as blue as the Bonnie Blue Flag."

I'm not so sure, HD, that it too wouldn't still look rightside up if flown upside down as a distress signal but it's a fine flag and I'll give it some thought. :) Am also giving some thought to flying the American Civil Flag of Peace in distress mode, maybe:
