Flag Up, Union Down
No Gold Braid Border
I have received information that has altered my opinion on this page. A flag flying upside down is an order for any and all U.S. Military that happens to pass that way to stop and help. Thus, displaying the flag upside down is not practical in our situation. The following letter states this view quite vividly.
by Norm Olson (normolson@northlink.net) 2/17/99
IN ANSWER TO: "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."
"Aren't you going to turn your flag upside down, Norm? . . . Everyone is doing it, why don't you?"
Granted, the nation is in distress. And granted, there is an emergency, but the signal of dire distress is shown when the situation has become hopeless and when life and property are in imminent danger.
Not only is the flag turned upside down when ones control of the situation is gone, but it also indicates that there is hope only in what someone else can do, presumeably someone who can come to the rescue, else why signal distress?
So then, I must ask the question, "Are we in a hopeless situation and are there others who can rescue us?" To both questions I must answer "NO!" I am not yet willing to admit defeat or distress. I am not yet willing to beg someone else to do what I must do. I am not yet willing to signal distress to the world as if showing the world that I regard the situation as "all but lost."
Granted, I may be out-numbered and out-gunned, but when has God ever needed a majority of anything?
Instead, I will fly my bright colors with the stars pointed toward heaven from whence cometh my only strength and help and I will keep the stripe of red at the bottom to signify the other Americans whose blood has saturated this soil.
Surrender to the situation and declare hopelessness to the wondering world?
NO! A THOUSAND TIMES NO!
So when they ask Norm Olson if he is going to turn his flag upside down as others have, I will answer as another American did long ago when asked if he would surrender:
"Surrender? I have not yet begun to fight!"

You are encouraged to check them out. Besides being a good source of flag information, it has many good links to subjects of interest to those of you interested in taking back our government.
My opinion: The existence of sites like Syninfo demonstrates the urgency Americans feel toward our deteriorating situation. They have their purpose. They are attempting, like many of us, to wake the masses while there is yet time.
But it is also the patriotic, and sensible, duty of all of us to choose the most reasonable path toward freedom.
