I saw yet another video of a group of protestors burning the American flag. The disgust me! Please tell me someone else out here agrees that it is wrong and should be illegal.
The majority seems to be against flag burning. Any protesters are insulted by the majority. But... What if you were going to die and you needed to burn it for warmth? HMM?!?!
What if there was a choice between both a Canadian and American flag?
Just to clarify, flag burning is currently legal, and I think it should stay so. There's a fine line between not allowing people to burn the flag and not allowing people to protest against the government. If we banned flag burning, that fine line would be at all the more danger to be crossed.
No Craze, supporters of flag burning are more patriotic than those against it. We understand that America was founded as a dissenter; a radical revolutionary against an oppressive government. America was founded as a republic; a democratic institution to allow the government to be changed as the people see fit. America was founded as a haven; a refuge for those trampled and belittled. Only by allowing people to express themselves without the tyranny of others oppressing them can we have an America.

Good, thank you Although patriotic here is used with slightly a different meaning.
Johnny, exaggerating, stereotyping, and simplifying someone's emotions doesn't make a good argument. People who burn the flag don't necessarily have anger problems. They're just protesting. By your argument, the founding fathers had the mindset of "I have anger problems and I cant stand america because the goverment is out of control!".
Read beyond the first sentence to find the rare and evasive explanation.
so you think its perfectly right to burn a symbol of america. im done, as it seems i cant get to people like you, you arrogant people who dont have any good morals.
If you're done why are you still posting?
IPC, I can tell that ur not a single bit Patriotic and all the other people who agree with you. I bet all of yall hate your country.
I'll take that bet. I would definitely win though, because I love my country. There's a huge difference between wanting to change it and hating it.
Protesting if you havent noticed just pisses most people off if you havent realised yet. And calling us un patriotic is rediculus i wouldn't protest but would i start a revolution if i had this big of problems with my country duh:P Then people would understand burning something is a small show honestly to get the effect i think you disire kill someone people minds area hard thing to change there bodies however are much easier to destroy. Not to sounds morbid or thatd i do any of this just speaking my mind.
Does no one get the fact that protests just piss people off rebelion is just a senseless act. Want a real change start a revolution, pull a John Booth. Burning a flag insaults everyone who's worked to give you the right to well burn the flag.
