The law is clear: flags shall be flown at half-staff for thirty days after the death of a President.

But, you know, fuck the law.
Right?
Fuck. The. Law.

@godpod Flags were at half staff for President Nixon’s second inauguration, following the death of President Truman. Remember how Nixon’s second term ended? An omen for Trump’s second term, perhaps?

I like that we’re flying our #flags at #HalfStaff to honor the #victims of a #MassShooting in the #US. That said, by my count there have been 73 mass shooting #deaths so far this month.

At this rate we’re going to need to just leave them there until it becomes a bit more difficult for #AngryMen to acquire #guns to address their #insecurities.
