You’ll know. It’s a signal that someone mattered. That we, as a country, decided to stop for a second and be quiet together. It’s not a political statement. It’s not a conspiracy. It’s just a simple, sad sign that says, “We remember.”
And if you’re still confused? That’s okay. The flag police won’t arrest you. Just enjoy the walk, maybe buy a pretzel from a street vendor, and let the flag do its quiet thing. You know, like a friend who doesn’t talk but just knows you’re sad.
Now, go look it up. I bet it’s for a really nice judge from Ohio. Or a military dog. You never know. D.C. is weird like that.
