On Monday September the 10th, Massachusetts House of Representatives will vote on a bill to automatically require the American and state flag be flown at half staff to commemorate a police officer or firefighter killed in the line of duty. The measure has already passed the state Senate.
On the day before 9/11, the anniversary of first responders great triumph and greater tragedy, I can't imagine it will have any problem passing. My only question is can someone get to the Governor for his signature by the morning of 9/11?
I can't think of a more fitting gesture to remember and honor those 343 firefighters, 60 police officers and 13 EMTs who gave so unselfishly to save thousands, setting a proud example for generations to come.
Look, no one has commented on this post at all. It looks like the townsfolk's interest in your obsession is "flagging."
ReplyDeleteInteresting that a dedicated stalker/troll like you would point out a lack of Comments by, you know, publishing a Comment.
ReplyDeleteActually this one got great feedback over on my Facebook page (where folks, gasp, actually have to identify themselves).
