The Infamous "Flag at Half Staff"
As posted on Michelle Malkin's Website:
Just learned that the nutroots are claiming that the screenshot of the 9/12 march in D.C. that I posted — taken from a livecam of the event that I linked to here — is somehow “fake.”
The claim is that the shot came from the Kennedy procession or a previous left-wing protest and that the flag at half-mast proves that it was “fake.”
Newsflash for the clueless: Flags were still at half-mast earlier today in honor of the murder victims of the 9/11 jihadi attacks.
Here is a picture I took at the Rally, and if you scroll down, you will see video I took. The video was taken very early in the morning as the buses started to arrive. The video's not great, but toward the end of the video you will see a man with a yellow "Don't Tread on Me" (Gadsden) flag and then a building with two flags at half staff. If you still think this is fake, you're just a a left wing conspiracy theorist, and you have larger issues to deal with then whether a flag is at half staff or not.
