Let me start off saying that I never have burned the American Flag, and have ZERO desire to. I love America and I couldn't imagine living anywhere else in the world. With that said, I wouldn't want to live in a country where you couldn't burn the flag. People died so that you COULD burn the flag. Our constitution protects it. Why is this concept so foreign to people when I make that statement? Do you think that North Koreans would just love to say "North Korea, love it or leave it"? I saw a picture of a guy assaulting a flag burner on Facebook. Do you know who goes to jail? Not the flag burner. Discuss.
The assaulter is a moron. Too many people in this country who say "follow the Constitution" but have no idea how it works... I never did understand the purpose of burning the US flag or turning it upside in protest...Whats it going to accomplish??? Don't blame the government for your shitty life. Blame yourself.
I'm not sure what it accomplishes, but the outrage that follows is why people continue to burn the flag. Words and symbolism can only hurt your feelings. For as long as words and symbolism don't affect policy and law, I fully support free expression.
Do you know what flag is the most offensive and deserves to be burned the first chance you get? It is a symbol of lawlessness, murder, spying, dishonesty, rule breaking, treason................
Nobody ever has an issue with properly disposing of a flag. I'm talking about burning the flag in protest or to provoke a response.
Flag burning is for people too unintelligent to articulate their point in a coherent fashion. People can burn all the flags they want, it won't make them any smarter though.
Burning the flag is a constitutionally protected act of Free Speech. But a profound one. The problem is yahoos that do it, without realizing the statement being made. At least the muslims are correct, when they do it.
I only burn 1 flag, when I'm thirsty, and when I'm thirsty I kick back a nice, cold, relaxing Budweiser, when I'm burning the confederate flag. Stay thirsty my friends.
people who burn the flag suck balls I don't think thats in our constitution but thats how I feel edit: unless they are properly disposing of it, then I'm cool w them
