Anyone who takes the time to fly the American flag is most likely expressing their patriotism and is very respectful of the American flag. To suggest that people not lowering to half-mast are "ignoring" the request seems misguided. As others have suggested, they probably just weren't aware of the presidential request to fly at half-mast. If it really bothers you, stop and let the folks know. They may appreciate it. Regardless, be thankful for those that are willing to express their belief in this great country.
