Black flags

[duanewade]

I've been seeing a lot of then going up locally. Me personally, my neighbors and most friends have the same political leanings and beliefs, some more so than others.

I'm not really one that wants to advertise to strangers driving down my road and seeing one flying on my flagpole and know what my politics are. I don't want some fruitcake getting their panties in a wad and taking their frustrations on my home or family.

Thoughts?

Old days it meant "no quarter for the enemy". Today I believe conservatives are using to say that we will not give

 

[CitizenX]

From Internet: This term is used in such expressions as “to give no quarter” or “cry quarter”; in regard to hostilities by land, sea or air, denial of quarter means refusing to spare the life of anybody, even of persons manifestly unable to defend themselves or who clearly express their intention to surrender.
a.k.a Never let your enemy live to fight another day.

I prefer not to stand out or advertise my positions. No political signs, NRA stickers, MAGA hats, etc. Fading into the background, I am less likely to be noticed or attacked.
Additionally, one cannot know how another would interpret the black flag.

This right here ^^^!!!

Good on those that boldly advertise their position. I'm not one of them though.

There are nut jobs everywhere, with nothing to lose by harming others. (Just look in Chicago right now.)
Not gonna be a target or go to prison for defending me and mine.

My neighbor, cattycornered across the road flys a Gadsden flag. I chuckle to myself, knowing the trouble will be their way instead of mine.
They are a measured 100 yards away.

Always nice to know who your real friends are. The ones you can count on in even the toughest times. The ones who will be by your SIDE instead of behind your back.

Neighborly tip, Google Earth and it's measuring tool is an excellent method of laying out zones of fire.

Makes it easier to understand your drop and known landmarks. It is amazing how things in your day-to-day AO are further away than you realize.

Heard it from a friend...

That's good advice. I just used a laser rangefinder.

I figure whatever heathens might attack my neighbors, they won't be expecting me to flank them from the cover of my decks.

I've used Beacon-Schneider GIS maps for measuring distance too. Has a very good measurement tool plus it shows property lines too.

Maybe the writer was Messican... the bugle call at The Alamo is called "El Degüello". "Degüello" is a Spanish noun from the verb "degollar" to describe the action of throat-slitting. But in Santa Anna's time it was a red and black flag..

It's not the tune Billy Bob Thorton harmonized to with his fiddle.
