    Again, if these people who burn flags because they have so many issues with the US. they are free to leave. I'll even help them pack. They can go to NK where freedom of speech doesn't really exist.

    Well when you say you don't want freedom or democracy, that makes it pretty clear you don't share our values.

    I know. Just like you didn't bother to read the link about the Danish government finding that 72% of people filing as unaccompanied child refugees were actually adult fraudsters... You routinely don't bother to read things but still want to make up lies and argue against them. The fact that you are ignorant and do not know what you are talking about never seems to stop you from flapping your big mouth.

    You know, even a not so bright man can learn from his past mistakes but you seldom seem to do even that much. What does that say about you?

    If you have issues with the direction of the US, do you leave, or do you try to change it? And remember, you are using the motivations of some, to represent the motivations for all. Basic mistake, the sort of thing we should expect from a young teen.

    You went from "none of the flag burners hate America" to "you have to prove everyone who burns an American flag hates America." You've also twisted/ignored what he's said about how he agrees with their freedom to do so even if he doesn't like them doing it (so not to dissimilar from what you said yourself) to insist he's somehow anti-free speech himself, when all he's doing is (very clumsily) pointing out the hypocrisy of destroying something that symbolizes freedoms like the freedom of speech.

    I never said "none of the flag burner hate America," so try again. Nor have I said that Federal Farmer was against free speech. Where do you get these foolish ideas? Maybe you should spend less time watching cartoons, and more time reading. Practice would help your comprehension.

    What if I was confused with burning the USSR flag? A sickle looks like a crescent moon. Russian immigrants watch my children. I wouldn't want to offend them. They braid my duaghters hair!

    Our freedom and the ideals that the flag represents and the flag itself.

    They might be. I don't ask such prying questions. Their teenage son hates liberalism and feminism though.

    Which freedoms and ideals?

    Are you saying that the flag doesn't represent America?

    I notice you chickened out of responding to the posts where I pointed out that the flag represents that good and bad of America. Why is it that when a soldier wears the flag on his shoulder it immediately means that the mistakes of politicians are irrelevant? That the attitudes of the American people are irrelevant?

    Yes so would I, not least because that flag does not represent a country, of which none of us are citizens and doesn't represent a country that has freedom of speech as a cornerstone principle.

    So your comparison is laughable to say the least.

    Come on, admit it. You really are still in school aren't you?

    I have an Irish flag tattooed on my arm, does it represent everything to do with Ireland? Nope, it represents my Irish heritage. When a soldier wears the flag on their shoulder and they do their duty, that flag represents our principles, our values our ideals.
