The flag at my apartment complex has been at half staff since Friday [View all]

Which I find kind of obscene. Dump passed an executive order authorizing this, but I think it only applied to government buildings. The flag at my complex in suburban Kansas City was definitely not at half staff when the elected legislator in Minnesota was assassinated in June.

This was a partisan, hate spewing political pundit, who spent his career debating 19 year old college students because if he debated knowledgeable adults, he would have gotten his ass handed to him and been exposed.

I'm moving soon and want these assholes to give me a reference and not charge me for a couple damaged things in the apartment because they're scheduled to do a renovation after I leave anyway, but I find it very inappropriate.

Trump canceled flags being at half staff for President Carter and how he's ordered it for this cretin - at our embassies all over the world. It's so fucked.
