Over the last few days, there have been many posts about the White House not flying the flag at half-staff. I too have wondered why, myself. But then I look and see who's in charge and figure that we have to just look at the source.
Then in a post I read today, I was reminded that a few weeks ago the White house was lit up with rainbow lights. I am not against what the rainbow lights stood for, let me just get that straight. What I am against is the president of the United States not respecting the military personnel that were killed in Chattanooga.
My husband and I went grocery shopping today, and on the way we noticed several businesses with their flags at half – staff. City offices, banks, factories, and several homes that had flagpoles in the yard. Can someone please explain to me why the president of the United States did not make this a priority at the White House? People can say "oh you're just racist," "you don't like the president because he's black,"and all the other stupid things they come up with. No, I don't like him because he has not shown me that he is a good president nor would he ever be one. This is a disgrace to the families of those that died, and a disgrace to the people who love this country.
I hope he is enjoying his Sunday with his family, or golfing, or doing whatever it is that's more important than showing respect to those who gave their lives.
