No
US Flag protection from Congress?
So it's OK for some "low-life" to spit in the face of every
person that served our country and every Patriotic US Citizen, by
burning the flag and desecrating it before our eyes?
Well then it should be legal for an American Patriot to be able to
walk up to them and knock them right on their ass! If what
they want to do is trade offenses then there should be "open
season" on flag burners...
Especially if they haven't paid a personal price to enjoy the freedoms
of living in the USA, and still wish to insult every Man and Woman
that served in the US Armed Forces, they should have to deal with some
of them on a one on one basis. I'd pay money to see that!
I have never witnessed anyone burning or desecrating our
flag. However, I can promise everyone reading this right now
that if I do, I'll most likely end up being arrested for battery on
that person and proudly state my case in court while they are
punishing me for fighting for our beloved US Flag.
Hundreds of thousands of American Patriots have died protecting what
that flag stands for and there are Men and Women still dieing while
fighting for that flag... that symbol of the USA they can carry with
them into battle.
Additionally,
it's highly unlikely they meant to die so some "Flag Burning
Scum-bag" could dishonor it while protesting at their Funerals.
"For it has
been said so truthfully that it is the Soldier, not the Reporter,
who has given us the freedom of the press.
It is the
Soldier, not the Poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the
Soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest.
It is the Soldier
who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is
draped by the flag who gives that protester the freedom he abuses to
burn that flag."

Miller, Sept 1, 2004 Republican

I
believe that any US Veteran should be allowed to beat the hell out of
any flag
desecrating scum-bag
they encounter, and not be prosecuted for it.
If they can fight for it on a foreign battlefield with honor, they can
continue to fight for it on our own streets with honor... And if
they are arrested for it, we as Patriotic Americans should create a
fund to pay for their legal fees so they can continue to fight for our
flag in the Courts if necessary.
We need to protect those that are willing to defend our flag, even if
it's protecting them from our own Governments lack of a majority of
so-called "Leaders" with any apparent common sense or
patriotism.
There are just too many "Unpatriotic Americans" in Public
Office and presiding over some Courts these days to effectively
protect our country and the symbols that represent it, and something
must be done about it...
So
remember that the next time you're standing in a voting booth
thinking about which of the variety of self-absorbed idiots you're
going to give the power to, to rule over our very lives...
