No flag is to fly higher than the United States Flag.

American Flag to be highest flown

Ummm

The US and people's republic of Maryland flags are hung together and that POS Salisbury flag is flying level with the US flag. Did I get it right?

TREASONOUS OOS LIBS.

Our flag must fly highest and what is that other flag anyway?

Anonymous said...

2 flag poles and 4 flags. If they are going to double hang them shouldn't the Maryland flag be below the American Flag. I have never seen flags hung like this. If there are 2 flags on one pole one is always lower than the other. Who is the idiot that did this?

Guess the mare will apply for a grant to buy 4 more flag clips and a Boy Scout manual to study up on the intricate rules surrounding display of our nation's flag.

Well damn, just damn. This town cannot even get this right. United States of America flag always, always, flies higher than any other flag. What is wrong with the fools who are in charge down there. Get it right or take them down. What a disgrace!

What an insult to our United State of America. Put it at the very top without any other flag or take it down. And take that gay pride crap and that blue and yellow thing and hang them at the dump.

Thought Jake Day was a squared away military man! (That's a joke folks!) Flags just show how little he values the military and the American flag.

One would think Jake day being n army officer he would know about these things. Salisbury is pathetic

Anyone who things Jake is helping you, you are wrong . All he is doing is stealing ideals and duplicating services . So have fun with that.

He's tired because he's off his addies. Everyone makes mistakes... most just aren't so large... and repetitive.

I do hope the flags are removed (without touching the ground) every evening. If not, he American flag (highest flag) must have a light shining on it. Someone please send Day the official instructions on flying the American flag. It's on the web.

From https://www.chamberofcommerce.org/usflag/uscode36.html#171

§175. Position and manner of display
The flag, when carried in a procession with another flag or flags, should be either on the marching right; that is, the flag's own right, or, if there is a line of other flags, in front of the center of that line.
(a) The flag should not be displayed on a float in a parade except from a staff, or as provided in subsection (i) of this section.
(b) The flag should not be draped over the hood, top, sides, or back of a vehicle or of a railroad train or a boat. When the flag is displayed on a motorcar, the staff shall be fixed firmly to the chassis or clamped to the right fender.
(c) No other flag or pennant should be placed above or, if on the same level, to the right of the flag of the United States of America, except during church services conducted by naval chaplains at sea, when the church pennant may be flown above the flag during church services for the personnel of the Navy. No person shall display the flag of the United Nations or any other national or international flag equal, above, or in a position of superior prominence or honor to, or in place of, the flag of the United States at any place within the United States or any Territory or possession thereof: Provided, That nothing in this section shall make unlawful the continuance of the practice heretofore followed of displaying the flag of the United Nations in a position of superior prominence or honor, and other national flags in positions of equal prominence or honor, with that of the flag of the United States at the headquarters of the United Nations.

US flags are left up over night in County ball parks. No lights just tattered old flags

What's wrong with the picture?
It's Salisbury Maryland , that's what is wrong , period.
Any person is allowed to correct the flag order , people are just plain chicken $hit.

Since Jake Day is a military man, he knows exactly what's wrong here. US flag is obscured, State flag should be on a separate pole or below it, City flag is missing and is replaced with a beach towel, and no, the citizenry of Salisbury is not inherently gay.

Off you very much, Jake Day and your whore wife, too.

Did I get that right?

More Jake run wild can't even get a closer trial date for his mare.

You would think a mayor who calls out posers in the military would have a better understanding of and respect for the flag of the country he swore to pick 1 weekend a month 2 weeks a year. GO PART TIME G I JOKE!

I want to know when we can get rid of the Fake Jake "beach towel flag" and return to the proper city flag. The rest is just letting uneducated kids run a town.

Joe, are you following the disaster at SPD? A corporal already previously demoted for multiple violations was caught in an affair with his subordinate whose husband works there. 2 other officers are under investigation for assault. And the big one they are freaking over is the property department supposedly has a bunch of missing items that could jeopardize criminal cases. This is a complete failure of organizational leadership. Barb can no longer blame one officer at a time. This is Barb, Kolb, Meienschein, Kaiser being inept and comfortable for years while not doing their jobs. Jake is on the hook for allowing it. Watch them spin and blame rather than own and apologize. They are hiding this trainwreck.

Where is the confederate flag?

Government just opened the door to a lawsuit with this BS.

All states can fly their flags at the same height as the U.S. flag, with some stipulations.

The U.S. Flag Code is a set of guidelines that recommend how to display the flag. Although there is no penalty for breaking the code, it stipulates that no other flag may be placed in "superior prominence" to the U.S. flag.

For example, if multiple flags share the same pole, the U.S. flag must fly at the peak. If two flags fly side-by-side, the U.S. flag must be on the flag's right (and the viewer's left). If the U.S. flag flies with multiple state flags, the U.S. must be in the center and higher than the rest.

Some know nothing idiot raised these flags. My guess is someone sent some fool out there to run the flags up the poles and this is what they got. If that is a gay pride flag, it should come down. It has NO place to fly next to the city, county and American flag. Not sure if it is privately owned or city owned.
