A loyal reader called me over the weekend irate as hell that the American flag at the Argenta Square Apartments was apparently being flown at half mast and upside down.  The reader thought someone was trying to make a political statement with an upside down flag, usually meaning distress.  This flag has been flying this way for several days on one of the busiest corners downtown with thousands of commuters going by this corner twice a day in rush hour.

Close inspection of the flag pole, in fact shows the attachment of the top of the flag to the flag pole rope is apparently broken allowing the top of the flag to fall and make it appear the flag is flying upside down and half mast.  Apparently no one with the mamagement of the Argenta Square Apartments pays that much attention to the flag since it has been flying this way for several days.  According to the reader, the same thing happened last year and they had to call management then.

This is no way to treat an American flag. So no distress here, just poor oversight.  Don't jump on the owner of Argenta Square, the Argenta CDC.  They have a full time mamagement company run Argrnta Square, but this is still a poor reflection on the Argenta CDC and Argenta in general. since most of those commuters have no idea this is the responsibility of the management company.
