LSU Student Reportedly Plans to Burn American Flag in Peaceful Campus Protest

Technically true.

But if this punk thinks he is man enough to insult an entire nation he ought to be man enough to engage in some manly fisticuffs too.

Now that's real protest.

 

This is very, very true...

 

people burn american flags

/care

 

At a punch in the face.

 

If you allow that, what's to say someone won't take it a step further next time???

Slippery slope...

 

The majority of our soldiers are from the south. You think they will fight an war of agression against the south? you are cute.

 

Being in the military, they won't have an option...

 

If they do, punish them. It isn't brain surgery!
It isn't a slippery slope.

 

That is not a protest, that is an emotional, unbalanced and illegal action.

I find this very peculiar that some right wingers are emotionally attached to this issue, while too often arguing that individual liberties are being taken away. Here is a perfect example of emotional hypocrasy.

Let me save you suspense, and hopefully get you to think a little better, the counter protest would be to douse out the flames. Now I am sure you are crude enough, , to understand there are plenty of mediums to douse the flame, but always remember, the more legal, the more tactful, the greater the US prestige.

US citizens are better than the rest of the world, we are far more tolerant, accepting, helpful, generous and most of all, productive. But it isn't easy, in fact far from it, but it is in this, that does make us better, because we are willing to go the extra mile to get it done. Remember that includes people who are on the other political spectrum.

 

The US military are professional and loyal, yes they will.

 

Yeah, RRRRrriiiight. The naivete here is astonishing!

 

No, it really is a protest.

The flag hating punk burns the flag in protest.

And someone punches him in the nose in protest.

The guy could protest back but creeps like him seldom stand up and fight like a man.

 

NOPE! You ask a free people to attack their own homeland and you will see a gigantic revolt!

 

I think it is a cry for attention by a little boy whose daddy never told him he loved him and whose mommy never thought he was good enough to be her son, and she was right!

 

I cannot stress to you enough how wrong you are...

 

Is is a slippery slope if you allow violence against that sort of behavior, even if it's just a punch in the face, that gives off the hint that it's OK and to be accepted...

Civilized folk don't behave like that...

 

Did you understand the point I was trying to make with taking the high road, the point of dousing the flames, the point of assault, and finally the point of freedom of expression.

I am trying to insight you on how to deal with yahoos like this and you are bent to act with little less maturity and understanding.

Here's another tact, try preventing the permit that would allow him to have an open flame. Act smarter!!!!

 

What is funny, something burning is quite a violent event. How it can be used to represent peace is mind bogling and shows how the left can turn words around that don't really mean what they are saying.

 

I think the issue is is that it's not violence against another person...

But, don't get me wrong, I'm not agreeing with the flag burning...

I think it's stupid and offensive...

 

It IS NOT a slippery slope. A measured response is something rational people understand. We allow shooting in self defense, but it doesn't degenerate into allowing the defender to shoot everyone with the guy threatening also, unless they are also threatening him.

 

It is how they justify all their positions. Abortion is OK because a child in utero isn't a "human being" by the definition they have made up on the fly, not the actual accepted one.

All of their positions are justified in this idiotic way. That is why I have never understood their claiming intellectual superiority. They all seem like morons to me.

 

It is AGAINST a nation of PEOPLE.

 

Responding with violence to an act that is not violent against anyone is not a measured response...

Yes, you can shoot someone in self-defense, if your life is in danger...

If someone punches you in the face, you can't shoot them...

This is the same thing...

 

You know what is my property, that will be damaged by the burning of our flag? My peace and well being. The is no worse way to disturb the national peace than to burn our flag to make some idiotic point.

What about my right assured in the Constitution to; "domestic tranquility" - "Blessings of Liberty"?

Prestige? I don't see the burning of our flag to be prestige.

So you tolerate poor service from people you hire to work for you, and accept incomplete work before you go ahead and generously pay more than you had agreed to pay?

Great way to build a stronger and more productive society. You are our problem.

I don't tolerate any BS or accept poor service from anyone.

 

Nope, it'd be a response against the peoplewho thought it'd be a good idea to try to take up arms against a country w/ a military the size of ours...

EDIT: My mistake, I mixed up my responses... I meant to reply that it's not physical violence against anyone...

Still stupid though...
