They always look really stupid and crazy while they are burning it. Give em enough rope, I say.

No other country in the world would allow their citizens to desecrate their own flag. I don't think we as Americans should be any different. Thus, I can't help but sympathize with "the extreme right" as it were (not to mention the military/veteran community), on this one. Just how far will we let things slide? I'm familiar with the concept of the "slippery slope", but honestly, what type of country do we want to become?

For an average leftist to comprehend what I'm talking about, I propose burning the rainbow gay-rights flag and witnessing their reaction.

Then again, an average leftist isn't smart enough to see the double-standard anyway.

So I know what you mean about standards of civil behavior and slippery slopes, but honestly people that burn the flag do look retarded. Every time some leftist lunatic burns a flag another conservative is made.
