Umm No And Why??

From the Reno Gazette Journal:
Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval signed an Executive Order on Sunday which directs flags to be flown at half-staff beginning immediately until sunset on Thursday, in honor of the victims of the recent terrorist attacks in Paris.
The Executive Order, in part, reads: “... the thoughts and prayers of Nevadans are with the victims of this horrific tragedy and their loved ones, and the people of France.”  http://www.rgj.com/story/news/2015/11/15/sandoval-orders-states-flags-half-staff/75852852/
I understand the sadness for Paris.
But he did not order the flags when the Russian plane was blown out of the sky a couple of weeks ago, in an act of terrorism.
Did he order the flag lowered when there have been other acts of violence, like when Muslims killed other people around the world?Nope.
So, why now and why for so long, at least 5 days.
Sandoval is wrong on many fronts.
