can you put more info about the subject?
ANSWER: When the Confederate soldiers come through town, they remove all of the Union flags. Barbara Frietchie is upset that her flag was removed. She puts her flag back up in the attic window, risking her life to stand up for what she believes.
The tense is all mixed up, but it looks like present is used most often, so "emitted" should be changed to "emits" and "pulled" should be changed to "pulls." I can't see the entire paragraph so just make sure that's consistent.
You don't need a comma in "running towards us with the fire extinguisher."
"Your mother and me" should be "Your mother and I." For reference try taking our "your mother" - it sounds pretty silly to say "me thinks" unless you're in the 1600s, right? And it should be "think" instead of "thinks."
Prewriting, writing, editing.
