I just saw a prison/military movie (forgot the name) in which it was suggested hanging the flag like that has some meaning for the military, a cry for help.

A couple was beaten, tazed and arrested for flying the flag upside down last year in Asheville, NC.

I beg to differ, but that flag is hanging vertical. Looks exactly how it should. Try to look at things, instead of just listening to people. Look at where the star field is in relation to the stripes and direction of the stripes....

Oddly enough, with the blue field in the lower left corner, and the strips above, it does appear that the OP is correct.

While I've seen posters try to claim that the stars were "upside down" on a flag hanging from a pole, that were clearly wrong.... I'm not getting anything in the spatial relationship here that would point to the OP being incorrect. IE, the stripes are PARALLEL to the blue field, NOT perpendicular....

Now, was it on purpose, or simply a printer's error?? Who knows...

I will admit that the flag is not straight up and down vertical, but it is also not "upside down". If you look at the field of stars, there are stripes underneath it.

That flag is nothing more than an artistic rendering of a flag flapping in the wind.

Good grief.

Some will look for anything to misdirect the public.

As an FYI, I flew MY FLAG upside down the day bush took office.

More precisely, the flag is vertically inverted, NOT upside down

I just took two pictures of my flag, from two different angles. It looks just like the picture of the flag behind Barak's picture.

If someone will please explain how I can do it, I'll be happy to upload my photos to put an end to this ridiculous accusation.

OneAngryMom,

On the main screen, go to "Custom Smilies" link on the upper left side. There you can upload your pix, give it a short name, Browse your files until you open the correct one, then upload.

There are size and pixel restrictions, so you may have to do some editing to resize it/them. After upload, just wait until a moderator approves it. It will appear before the site's smilies when you hit "Reply", so scroll down....

If the flag was hanging horizontal, yes it would be on the side (short part) of the field. Being that the flag is hanging vertical or diagonal it is at the representative bottom of the field...........
