Me: Why's the flag lowered to have staff?
Him: Haven't you heard the Queen of England died?
Me: Wait, so we lower the U.S. flag for foreign dignitaries? Since when?
Him: We just do what we're told around here.
So am I so country bumpkin that I missed somewhere along the way that we lower our flag for foreign heads of state/dignitaries? Someone please enlighten me.
What the ever-living fuck! There must be precedence for this, right? I'm just slack-jawed.
As an American, on American soil, I lowered my Ukrainian flag to half staff today...
My neighbors and I hugged and cried, then played cornhole.
If we all had Ukrainian flags and took the COVID vaccine, then we can finally stop global warming from ending the world in 2012.
A few years ago I would have said you were full of shit. Now I say you are 100% over that target.
Notice when some of the African dignitaries / Leaders who resisted the jab died there was no request to put the flag down. Hmm interesting.
