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.
My point is that you said that taking away the problem doesn't mean the problem is fixed. It does mean the problem is fixed. It isn't there anymore. That means its gone. The goal was accomplished. The apple was a metaphor, obviously one too complex for you to understand.
The problems gone but now theres no food now we have starvation which is just as bad as the problem in the first place. To complex?it didn't answer my question.
Wouldnt you rather have it succeed? The only way the government can succeed is if the people make sure it doesn't get become too powerful, which nobody seems to want to do.
I'm guessing your a democrat?well one of democrats main goals is to have a government active in almost every aspect of life i.e. health care
And the United States of America is nothing more than a name, a name applied to a government looking over an area of the world. If there was no government, than there would be no United States of America.
As long as I'm alive there will be even if it's just a memory.
Youve been saying this whole time that it should be illegal.
I've been saying im against it not that it should be illegal
So, your saying that because I believe in absolute freedom, I have the same mindset as a rapist? A rapist takes away freedom and forces someone to have sex with said rapist. That is the complete opposite. I don't see how you can associate the two.
You beleive freedom as far as i've seen means the ability to do everything you want thats wrong, atleast in our Government.

I wonder where that came from! Was that part of the Declaration of Independence? Yes, it was!
Where does it say if you burn your flag you our patriotic?
It IS illegal to burn the flag. I think that is wrong. It should be legal to burn the flag. The law should be there to PROTECT people. How does burning a flag hurt anyone? It doesn't. If I burn a flag, how will it harm anyone? It wont. Its a protest, or a sign of rebellion. Thats what this country needs. Rebellion.
you didn't get the question did you,
Human rights should entitle people to express themselves as they wish, even if it means burning a symbol the represents the country. The ideas this country was founded apon are FREEDOM. The fact that you're taking away a freedom that hurts NOBODY is a disgrace to this country.
WOW, unbelievable some people just don't get it. Americans have fought to protect this country since we fought for our independence. You think what they fought for is ok to burn. The flag represents a counry burning it is saying you hate your country, I have thought about it since this topic was posted and I see what your saying but instead of burning the flag, grab a piece of card board and wright your problems on it or take it to court (like I said before).
I dont see burning something as speech, so it shouldn't be protected by the constitution, and it should be illegal.
I don't see wearing swastika necklace as speech, so it shouldn't be protected by the constitution, and it should be illegal. And, by the way, I'm going to spell check everything I quote from now on. The difference between a rebellion and a revolution is that history is written by the winners.
The best type of government is an anarchy, because everyone would have the freedom to kill people, but wouldn't because it is wrong. Too bad we humans screw things up so often.
