America is in Distress, Veteran Flies Flag Upside Down Harrassed By Cops

[oceansdoor1]

The red neck, faggot that is wanting the flag to be flown correctly needs to be educated that it is perfectly LEGAL to fly it upside down and if he doesn't like it, he can take a flying leap off a tall bridge. He's also another brain washed sheeple. There's sheeples like him all over the place. Its sickening to see all the sheeples there are in this country. complaisant, stupid sheep!!

[ScottandTanyaYoung]

THANKS !!! NOW WHEN SOMEONE IS IN REAL TROUBLE THE COPS WILL JUST THINK IT'S SOME DUMB ASS EXCERCISING HIS RIGHT TO BE AN ASSHOLE AND NOT HELP THE PERSON IN DISTRESS. GOOD JOB JACK ASS!

[tehatemachine]

He was doing it all wrong. it's the STATES Fault. Not the countries. so he should of took his states flag and put it upside down.

[nationalist909]

the flag is to be flown upside down in times of dire distress. not as a sign of protest. this man, veteran or not, is not in distress and has no right to disrespect that flag! his Constitutional rights were not violated and it is not tyrannical of the village council to deny the liquor lisence. appeal it the right way. dont disrespect the entire nation and her flag.

[tehatemachine]

@nationalist909 And this is the problem. People getting to upset about something symbolic. A flag is generally something symbolic yes? Butt it's not what influences our actions and decisions we make. It's the constitution and our personal motives that does. it's just a flag, it's what you don't see that matters. and if you don't see or notice it. That means that it's doing it's job And that is the governing body. States however do stupid shit like this all the time trying to override amendments.

[Jae69]

im goin to get me a US flag and hang it upside down.. would i get the same reaction?? even if im Canadian lol

[startrekwarsmixguy]

just give him the damn liqueur license

[Zizumia1]

This guy is a vet, this flag was flown in distress, it is fully legal.

[Ali3970]

come on guys its just a flag, if you die is that flag getting you into heaven?

[localSickened]

2 stupid six year olds fighting over a piece of cloth

[nodmessenger]

Upside-down flying of the flag was ruled constitutional in Spence v. Washington, a 1974 Supreme Court ruling.

[loudmouthmuzik509]

i support it both ways, if u r a proud american and it angers u to see it like that than u should be just as angered to see all the freedoms u fight for being taken away

[brillowpad56]

What a peace of shit. Good for you going to war millions of Americans have done that. Your going to fly a flag up side down for not getting a liquar license. You sound like a baby deal with your problem instead of doing something childish like that.

[92fudbaler]

Ther is nothing wrong with what the man did. It is form of protest that more US people should start doing to see some change. I wipe my ass with the flag all the time since GW was President.

[soundwavefreak6659]

Well you're the dumbass who went so deeply in debt......thats not the government's fault.......man the fuck up and be responsible

[gearsofwargamer1976]

Fly the Gadsden Flag instead of the American flag. Don't Tread On Me!

[ShinigamixXXx]

you are not a free people......

LISTEN to your Government they know whats best for you

foreget about your life your identity

OBEY !!!OBEY!! and OBEY!

[BringItUN]

As a result of the many traitors and enemies we as a free people have, both foreign and domestic, as a result of the many unconstitutional acts, legislation and atrocities passed and/or committed against US citizens and their life, liberty and property, and as a result of policies that have allowed (and continue to allow) enemies of this nation to enter in large numbers through a porous border policy, I believe the life, liberty and property of US Citizens are in dire danger and distress.

[BringItUN]

No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor. (a) 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. Most individuals who have served in the military service of our nation will (or should) recognize this signal.

[BringItUN]

To the contrary, here is the relevant part of the US Code of Laws regarding how to fly the flag when in distress: THE FLAG CODE Title 36, U.S.C., Chapter 10 As amended by P.L. 344, 94th Congress Approved July 7, 1976 § 176. Respect for flag:

[BringItUN]

The upside down U.S. flag is an official signal of distress. It is not meant to be, and is not officially recognized as any type of disrespect when so displayed for the right reasons.

[BDCvideos]

Which it wasnt!!

[876arch]

thats the risk you take

[WeRideDoeLoe92]

i love my country and i would more than happy to fly the american flag upside

[WestCoastIrk]

that veteran should have stuck a knife in that idiots gut to show him the seriousness of whats going on. And yeah he was tresspassing, at least punch the dude in tha face as a warning, then stab his ass or he'll just shoot em. They are the fucking disgrace and are too stupid to realize what is really american and what isnt. They can only follow leaders. 75 % of the people in this world are clones by the way. We are under major attack by the New World Order.

[CornerTalker]

It's time to quit flying Old Glory altogether. This flag stands for the United States and the Constitution, and I don't know where either of those are anymore. Put Old Glory away until what they stand for returns. Raise the red flag of tyranny. 

[Boston1775]

give him his fucking liquor license, jesus christ govt gone wild

[marksky57]

It's true, unless you are a large corporation, usually foreign owned, we the people have to gravel for licenses, permits, city ordinances, to try and do business. There is a war between the middle class and corporate world. BREAK THE CHAINS! VOTE WITH YOUR DOLLARS AND DO NOT SHOP IN CHAIN STORES!

[MrGovernment502]

i pledge allegiance to the flag of the devided state's of embarrasment...

[58cache]

the man has the right to express his opinion if he wants to put the flag upside down for what ever risen he has the right to do that, the dope head should of gotten shot down by a 50cal, and yes i love this country i just don't like the government at all

[86Eugene]

United States Code Title 4, Chapter 1 Section 8a.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.

[SeraphimPwnsU]

@86Eugene Agreed... and do you not think we are in danger of life and property when, say, a deaf and mentally handicapped person is beaten and tazed because he "took too long" in a store's bathroom?

[Typhon93]

Both men should relize they are for the same cause. One flies the flag upside down because he's upset about the countrys state of being, and the other is fighting because he's upset about seeing the countries flag in a state of destress. Both men should understand that they are on the same side and for the same cause, and leave the flag as it is. The truth is sometimes hard to see, but note, when the truth is shown, people react. And thats what we need.

[looda90]

watch?v=E1UTuYyACSA go see where your money goes Americans ..

[dodgyhingst]

Most rednecks standing on the town square drinking a beer as they wave Old Glory during a July 4th parade have NO CLUE in hell what is really going on in The United States.

America will destroy The United States. That has been the mission from day one.

[Magnus2552112]

The man was well within his rights. It was NOT disrepectful to fly the flag of DISTRESS it is legal to do if you are in ANY KIND of distress and NEED HELP.

WE THE PEOPLE need help and WE THE PEOPLE are in distress.

[MetalDetroit]

ummmm.....liberals were flying the flag upside down at anti war protests when Bush was President. But I guess that was ok then....

[PlanetXObserver]

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the Divided States of America and to the  republic of exploitation and extortion for which it stands one nation under Satan for hatred and sorrow for all.I am in serious distress now let's all hope the government fixes our evil society in a couple of years from now.

[Malafede122112]

If the flag upside down is a sign of distress, I'm turning mine over. The United States is in distress, under full scale attack from the 'government' and the banks.

The only place where it should be upright is Washington DC, where the enemy has already taken over.

[marcostar57]

@Malafede122112 The enemy took over in January 2001.. idiot.

[Malafede122112]

@marcostar57 The enemy took over Washington DC in 1913. But I'm going to try to fight a little while longer.

[JenkemWOGbeforeUrun]

@marcostar57 you're the idiot. 1913 is exactly when we lost the country to the kikes.

[marcostar57]

@JenkemWOGbeforeUrun OK .. whatever ..now go back down inside your underground bunker ...just another tin-foiled hat nutcase..

[86Eugene]

@JenkemWOGbeforeUrun please read "behold a pale horse". the powers that be would have you think that it is the jewish people at the helm of this tyranny but it is not... God Bless America as we fight to take back our nation.

[kanserstyx]

You Humans disappoint me.

[gameplaya117]

@kanserstyx I know right. Especially America. We somehow cant get past our ego and self idolization.

[supercomet32]

@kanserstyx You have been heard now get the fuck off our planet

[itseyona]

Good on you. That man came onto your property and and messed with your property. You should have physically removed him. This is a perfect example of non-violent protest. this is guaranteed by your 1st amendment rights. As for the PD coming onto your property and doing the same thing? Take them to court. Make this a bigger issue!

[Treddian]

The up-side-down flag is a universal distress signal. This man is in distress and hurt by his back-stabbing government. I think he did the right thing. Semper Fi.

[Stink808]

legal or not, after this stunt his business is surely doomed.

[beyondalohas]

childish

[davidlee110]

HELP ME

WHERE YOU CAN BUY THE 3X5

U.S.S.A FLAGS

the soviet american ones?

[Joysquigglesparkles]

I'll make you one.

[otrice53]

Vito? Supper club??? Hmmmmm

[blueridger28]

This man was a combat veteren and some dopey hick who probably never served tried to take it down this man is an idiot.

[sarge958]

@blueridger28 You don't know what hick means. hick means hard working rural person. many "hicks" have served. Just saying.

[blueridger28]

@sarge958 Well. I gues you could call me that. I grew up and live in the appalachin mts of N.C. served with a mechanized infantry unit for 4 years.

[sarge958]

@blueridger28 Yeah. I guess it don't really matter but a lot of people think of "ignorant/arrogant" when they think of hick.

[chriscarneywatch]

As long as the government is trying to fine me and arrest me if I don't buy health insurance, then fly the flag at half mast or up side down or both.

[IRSFRAUDEXPOSED]

i would have shot the faggot trying to take down his property

[MsIMListening2U]

If enough people did this - we might truly make a statement that is heard.

[tankertuff2002]

I've thought about doing this, not because of a measly liquor license, but because the country itself is in distress. I don't think I need to go into details, as we all know our Constitution is being attacked, and not so privately. I urge ANYONE with a flag pole, and a strong sense of patriotism to fly their flag in this manner. If someone wants to come onto your property to cut it down, tell them to leave. You only have to tell them once, if they don't leave, they are trespassing. Then---12GA

[bobafettfan32]

I have purchased an american flag & I am going 2 fly it upside down. The united states is iminent danger, not from a foreign takeover but from within. I am a veteran i served my country and it is moving at a blitzkreig pace 2wards a military/police, communist state. we have schools teaching kids 2 sing praise songs 2 obama? WTF!!! Obama is going2 be the 1st american dictator. As for that guy wantn 2 cut it down he would have got his ass kickd if he came on my property.

[gameplaya117]

@bobafettfan32 The first American dictator came long before Obama. Obama is at least TRYING to clean things up, though its not working all that great. At least in communism almost every citizen gets the same. With Capitalism, we can have lies fed to us while dressed up assholes ruin what alot of men died for a couple hundred years ago.

[PlanckLimit]

I'd like to see a resurgence in use of the US Civil Flag as the symbol of true American constitutional values, an America we once had and have since lost.

[edisonoside]

Bleach the Flag white and surrender to the Federal Reserve!

[judyleeverro1]

hellooooo!!!! we as Americans are all in distress because of what is being done to our rights in this country!!! thanks to the lunacy of the liberals and the evil they support. this man has a right to express himself...remember the constitution?????

[LoneStar1776]

Incredible that this is happening in the USA.... Millions of people need to see this video.

[KARStarla]

Sections 176:

(a) 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.

The man was CORRECT in the context of that very section

[KARStarla]

How can we help this veteran?? Can you make a viral video? I know sxephil's channel has helped folks, his videos go viral and his subscribers have helped other folks through his videos. Im wondering if he would do the same for this vet so he doesnt lose his home over this
