David_Nicoson 1 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Your title conflates "Okay" with legally protected. Freedom of speech -- but just for speech that is "Okay" -- is totally empty.I find the idea that our national symbol should be specially exempt from the freedom it represents to be both revolting and ironic. YMMV. Link to post Share on other sites

K_dense 3 Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 I think this post is getting ready to be derailed. I used to ride my bike up to the gas station and buy a pack of Pall Mall for my stepdad. I was 8 yrs old.The year was 1976. That was an era that we will never see again. If I had went up to the gas station and burnt the flag I would of been beaten up every day by my peersafter being released from police custody. I dont think its okay to be homosexualI dont think you should want to burn you flagI dont think Barack Obama's policies are very good for this countryI dont hate Barack Obama because he is blackI dont hate Barack ObamaI dont Link to post Share on other sites
