[Vision2020] Celebrate freedom, kick a flag--burner's ass!

[Tom Hansen]

Arnold stated:

 

"It is easier to find those that hate and wish real harm to the United
States if you allow them to burn a flag."

 

Are you suggesting that all those students and anti-war protestors during
Vietnam hated and wished real harm to the United States, Arnold?

 

Campuses (just to name a few) at:

 

University of Virginia

 

University of California at Berkeley

 

Kent State University

 

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO 

(Be careful here, Arnold. My wife attended UI during the late 60's.  Yes.
There were major demonstrations which included (on one occasion burning a US
flag and an attempt to burn down the Navy ROTC building)

 

Thoughts?

"I think that the question of whether flag burning is or is not speech 
is not so clear." Joe Campbell

Isn't it that every American Flag eventually gets burned?

A flag is speech, that is all it is, how you burn it and for what reasons I
think
speaks volumes. 

It is easier to find those that hate and wish real harm to the
United States if you allow them to burn a flag. 

Best,
