Funny how no flags are ever lowered at half-staff for any school shootings.
Cuz you know, children aren’t nearly as important as one MAGA pundit…
Why? Charlie Kirk wasn’t anything. He was a political grifter. Oh. Nevermind. Birds of a feather. I get it now.
Even if he never said or did anything, he was a friend of the Trumps - both the elderly orange peel currently staining the White House and his mentally-challenged offspring.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but Trump’s friends tend to be rather nauseating people.
Minnesota democrats murdered in their homes: nothing done or said. POS grifter shot while talking about violence: lower the flags, President gives a speech and tweet. America 2025 🫡
I think we need to start sell flag pole extenders so we can protest this shit.
Trump has also said he’s giving him the presidential medal of freedom
At this point the presidential medal of freedom is as important as the Burger King crown.
I will not be lowering my flag in remembrance of the life of an abuser who had helped to cause harm to so many of those that I care about. I will not celebrate his death, but neither will I lose sleep.
I will not be lowering my flag
Is that an ICE SUV I see in your street or just a random car full of masked people cosplaying?
You’re supposed to comply citizen!

Those two things are the same.
No they’re not: the cosplayers can’t kidnap you and disappear you to a foreign concentration camp.
Can’t be ICE, I haven’t put a magnetic Mexican flag on my car to act as a designated distraction yet…
On my to-do list is to get a gigantic flag pole and flag. I so wish I already had one up, just so I could NOT lower it for Kirk.
I will not celebrate his death
You’re a better person than me.
The American flag only stands for people like Charlie Kirk now… or people who don’t care. The Charlie Kirks lower their flags, the careless leave them up.
You can’t really take the Nazi flag “back” either.
The American flag isn’t the same as it was two generations ago. You just look like a Nazi.
Fuck MAGA. Good riddance to every last one of those Nazi white power cultists.
So what about the actual politicians that were gunned down a few month ago. Nothing for them? Oh, because they were democrats, and you endorse it, got it…
Lowering flags is now about as significant as being Nobel Prize nominated.
Or getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
I don’t understand how Kirk qualifies for this? He was just a modern version of Rush Limbaugh, going even edgier and on other platforms than radio…oh, right, Limbaugh got the fucking Presidential Medal of Freedom, so of course we should lower flags for a fucking Reich wing trolling edgelord.
He doesn’t. But Trump is an enormous piece of shit.
It’s scary to think about action having consequences, if you’ve been a POS.
So he has to self-sooth, vilify and project.
This is the same asshole who threw a hissy fit that flags were at half staff for Carter, a far more deserving person than Trump or Kirk could ever dream of being.

Yeah, I just saw a headline from The Economist that made me want to gag: “Charlie Kirk challenged liberals until the day he was murdered”
I mean, what kind of bullshit hagiography is that announcing? I started to read it, and it gets even worse right from the very jump.
Charlie Kirk was an awful douchebag and these paeans being said/written about him already are nauseating and he only just was killed. I suspect it’s only going to get worse.
You should see the glazing Fox gave him. It was wild to read.
AI doing the writing ide guess
But of course not for the kids that got shot today.
Like the new “metals of honor”, lowering the flag is now meaningless. Remember the orange rapist/felon ordered the flags at full mast after President Carter’s death for his inauguration.
Carter is 100x the President that Taco is. I sure hope that when Taco kicks the bucket, lots of people refuse to lower their flags…he is a total dirtbag and petty AF.
Kirk was a complete scumbag, but flags definitely flew at half-staff for school shootings in the past.
Trump ordered flags at half-staff for Minneapolis
Biden ordered flags at half-staff for Allen, Texas
Also, since this took place at a university, this technically counts as a school shooting. A feverent right-wing agitator dies at a school shooting. Ironic.
Does anyone know how to put a flag at 1.5 staff?
I never raise a flag but suddenly want the biggest one at the top of the tallest pole
one of the only times where it’s acceptable to fly an american flag high and proud
