In the last two weeks I've seen 4 Texas flags hanging upside down. You'd think that someone who would go to the effort to hang a flag would know better. I appreciate their effort but get it right.
Character is what you do when nobody's looking.

I see a few each year hanging up side down. A ranch down the road gets it wrong about once a year. I put a note on the key pad "flip flag" They will turn in back, but in a few months it is back to being upside down again. I am guessing their help ain't too bright.

Some people do it as a sign of saying the state, or country, is in disarray or is under attack. I believe they did it ages ago on ships but I could be wrong. I don’t do it.

Could it be a protest? I feel like it’s hard to mess up hanging the Texas flag, unless it’s on purpose.
I just turned it on . I was looking bird dogs in the butt this morning.

No one caught the mistake until the shirts were printed. Printing company had to reprint all of their shirts. That I can understand. I’m saying someone going to the effort to fly the flag would know which way it should go. Some random shirt printer just filling an order doesn’t think about such things (not that that’s an excuse).

That don't pay taxes. And that's why the statehood vote fails every time.
