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.

Ok...

Anyhow I think revolution is one of the few things we generally agree on.

one of my teachers once went on a rampage about our country. he took the american flag that was hanging in the classroom and started stomping on it, showing that no one would stop him. he then left the room. i proceeded to pick the flag up and dust it off.

Good job. If I was there when that happened there is a chance I would have let anger get the better of me.

Holt - it's a flag. Not a child or something else important - A FLAG.

It's an ugly thing to burn the flag, but it's even uglier to try to get rid of one's right to be ugly. Seriously, it doubles the hypocrisy of the what the USA says it stands for to prohibit burning our flag, a representation of what we stand for - free speech and freedom of expression.

Your right I think that we should still have the right to burn the flag. I just don't like it.

So Holt - you are threatening physical violence against someone for proving a point? For merely standing upon a thin bit of fabric? Doesn't that seem petty?

You mind telling me where I threatend anyone? I said I didn't know if I would be able to hold my anger in.

And when people let their anger out they generally do it against the people who've angered them. Especially when they say things like 'Might not be able to hold my anger in' which suggests spontaneous outbursts of violence or in the very least aggressive actions or words.

there has never been a time when I haven't held my anger in all I am sying is if I was there I might not have been able to stop my self from saying something. Get a life and stop worring about me.

Who says I'm worrying? I'm feeling a bit militant in my Atheism today and so would be very happy to see another Christian thrown in the slammer for hitting someone.

Well I can see that but your want to see me do something wrong is so strong you have to make up an insane scenario of me attacking someone out of anger. Sorry not going to happen but you can keep lying to yourself about it if you want.
