If someone were to burn a flag in front of me I would personally whip the living fuck out of them and then use their tattered body to smother the flames. Once the flames were extinguished I would take a shit on their face as I piss on their chest.
That's just my feelings on this subject.  |
Appreciate your comments about those who served in wars under whatever flags - I doubt anyone who burns a flag has any intention of showing disrespect to these people. However, the reasons for "flag burning" on occasion would probably make those who died turn in their graves and these same people would be burning that flag as well, in protest.
I can't think of one flag of any nation that is something to be proud about - all nations have done some pretty nasty stuff over time. Flags are something allied to that disease - patriotism. The next step is having everyone raise their right hand as a salute to a "leader" each morning and sing some "approved" songs :-) (Usually with a few mentions of God and some adoration of the "leader" and how wonderful the nation is)
