American Flag flying upside down as signal of DISTRESS


This is what the US Army is training to do to all who exercise their freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.

Scroll this site and take a while. You should be familiar with what they want to do to you. You will recall that a Texan Representative to Congress admitted that the many facilites now maintained for the National Guard are also held in reserve to store citizens who are not cooperating with the governments. I believe those are called concentration camps, although they will try to sanitize them as they did with the Americans of Japanese ancestry during that tragic epoch of our DEMOCRACY.
