4. Yes, someone started a thread in another forum
saying that if we thought our election had been hijacked, then display the upside down gif. It seems appropriate, although I was very torn between this and the pirate flag, but then, I really like pirates :)

6. Our country is in serious distress.
Two stolen elections in a row = no democracy. More of a threat than 9/11.

15. Distress signal.
We're in serious distress and need assistance in this country.

Doesn't work with the French flag, does it?

16. On the so-called inauguration day in January,
I may be in Washington, protesting peacefully.

My husband will probably be home. He will fly our flag at home upside down.
