So now they want to lower the flag for the Mayor of DC? What's next, half-staff for the local dog catcher? This is getting out of hand. #ridiculous

I don't understand why this bill is necessary. Why should the flag be flown at half-staff for the Mayor of DC? Seems like a waste of time and resources. #confused
