The local area should lower their local flag, not the flag of our country. There is specific protocol as to when the flag should be lowered to half staff. To do so any other time shows tremendous ignorance and/or disprespect, no matter what the intention. Those folks in the boat don't know any better, because no one ever taught them what the flag means, and why it should always be treated with the greatest respect.

If you wouldn't die for that flag (which implies you fully understand what it means), then you probably don't really care if it gets lowered or not.

And therein is a fine illustration of where our country came from, and where we are going.
