Can no one stop this monster? According to the
ACLU, those dangerous, Godless ozone-coddlers who are trying to destroy our freedom by enforcing the so-called Bill of Rights, Colin Powell was on THEIR side of the flag burning argument as recently as 1999. Look at what this dangerous Rockefeller Republican
said about flag burning in a letter to Patrick Leahy:
... I step back from amending the Constitution to relieve that outrage (burning God's ordained stars-n-stripes flag). The First Amendment exists to insure that freedom of speech and expression applies not just to that with which we agree or disagree, but also that which we find outrageous. I would not amend that great shield of democracy to hammer a few miscreants. The flag will be flying proudly long after they have slunk away....
If I were a member of Congress, I would not vote for the proposed amendment and would fully understand and respect the views of those who would. For or against, we all love our flag with equal devotion.
Sorry, you so-called "general", but the
right, conservative, God-fearing opinion on this issue is literally a no-brainer. If you love the flag, you don't burn it; instead you burn people who try to disagree with their president coz that ain't lovin' America.
I believe in free speech and everything, but some ideas are so dangerous that they have to be stamped out before they cause people to start thinking!! Only that way can we save America from Al Queeda and
unemployement gay marriage and
massive budget deficits leaving our Children's Behind!
