Please DU this poll on flag burning.
 Advertisements [?]http://greenbaypressgazette.com/apps/pbcs.dll/frontpage

Should flag burning be protected free speech?

Yes, it's a legitimate type protest: 26.2%

No, this is one place to draw a line: 69.6%

I'm not sure: 4.2 %


Number of votes cast: 404

5. We need to stop sending people to die for a piece of cloth, that was most likely made in China.
 Our Constitution should be our National Symbol, not some flag or cobbled together song.

I don't get this sending our kids to die in some political war of expediency somewhere as protecting our freedom. How did Korea, Viet Nam, the first Gulf War, Iraq and all those other 'conflicts' do anything to protect our freedoms? Didn't we as a nation lose freedoms in each case?
It is well past time we get our priorities straight. Stop killing brown people in other countries for fun and profit. We can't even maintain our own country any more.

16. You & I know that. It's the masses in the red states that think wars are what is needed

8. Done.
 32.5% favor free speech.

2/3 are clueless.

Flooding a poll with people = the free speach.

DUmp concept of freedom =  Totalitarian Socialism

It's not just "a piece of cloth", as libs are wont to say--it's what that piece of cloth REPRESENTS.

Don't worry, ****ers.  Far better men and women than you will ensure you can spew your bile without fear of a knock on the door in the night.

Wonder how they feel about burning the Mexican flag?  Or the Iranian flag?  Or the Chicom's?  Bet there some difference if it is not the USA's flag.

BTW, thanks for showing me where the poll is DUchebags.

I wonder if the DUmmies realize that most flags sold in the U.S., including those sold at WalMart, are made in the United States.

I doubt it. After all it's impossible for a flag to be manufactured in the US with this * economy.
