He would not. I posted his statement in the OP. They haven't lowered it for other attacks as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bye 3,947 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 They're strict adherents to their guidelines. I think I can respect that as it's not discriminatory in any wayway and should not be seen as offensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey 3,017 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Washington (CNN )Officials in an Alabama county refused to lower flags to half-staff to honor the victims of the Orlando mass shooting this week even after President Barack Obama and Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley ordered flags to be lowered. Citing the U.S. Flag Code, Baldwin County Commissioner Tucker Dorsey told CNN affiliate WPMI that while his "heart certainly goes out to the victims and their families," the incident "doesn't meet the test of the reason for the flag to be lowered." Dorsey added that the code states that the flag is to be lowered on Memorial Day and to commemorate the deaths of government officials. In a Facebook post published Tuesday, Dorsey wrote that Baldwin County also didn't lower the flags after the Paris terror attacks in November and the shooting in San Bernardino, California, in December by a married couple who pledged allegiance to ISIS. Obama ordered the flags to be flown at half-staff Sunday following the mass shooting at Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, early Sunday that left 49 dead and 53 injured. "I realize that the President and governor may make the order, but I believe and interpret their order inconsistent with the adopted flag code," Dorsey said.http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/17/politics/alabama-county-refuse-lower-flag-orlando/ "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.

JusKeepBreathin 19,311 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I think it's time gays flocked to these cities. They should open restaurants and fabulous bars and restore some theatre play houses make it a wonderful community thriving with jobs and vote all those disgusting gov't officials out of office. Kinda like they did in Key West.
