@waysideollie do you realize that upside-down flags have long established other meanings that have nothing to do with current events?
Sounds like you're assuming Alito should have the same level of ignorance that you're projecting here.
Turns out he might be much more informed about flag meanings.
@waysideollie except that he probably had enough basic understanding to know that the flag means things that you seem unaware of--he knew enough to know of flag meanings that in no way warranted removal.
Just because YOU don't know, and so want to project your limited understanding onto his life, doesn't mean he needs to act as if he had sunk to your level.
@volkris If he has such a high understanding of flag meanings, he should have acted a little more swiftly to remove it. The power of #scotus is equal to the presidency and congress. I expect behavior to be above reproach.
