Good morning boys and girls...For the past several day, I have noticed many places have been flying the American flag at full staff...
Yesterday, I began calling, a bank, a Ford dealer, a school, a grocery store, the regional council for the boy scouts, only to find that many follow the dictates from the governors office...
This morning I placed a call to the governor, only to be told that he order the lowering of the state flags to half staff on last Friday....
They were raised at sunrise the following day...
I disapprove of his actions....The flags should be at half staff until the final interment...Why the governor decided that only 24 hours should be given to the Ft Hood massacre, is unknown to me... ...
I have seen state flags at half staff for at least a fortnight and there was no mass murdering...Governor, sorry, but you blew this one badly...

... locally (at least in Wisconsin) flags are at half staff until the 11th.

I agree. The flags should be flown at half staff until the final interment.
And lets go ahead and call it what it is. The Ft. Hood terrorist attack.
