for once I agree with your statement

"they simply can't contemplate that an intelligent, patriotic, productive member of society could desecrate a symbol to protest against what they perceive to be an injustice"

No I can not

Was my post worded in such a way that you could not undertsand that I said I understood that people such as yourself can't possibly understand why people respect the flag? If you had trouble comprhending it, say so instead of further establishing yourself as a complete fool.

Are you trying to say the Stars and Stripe represent the same symbols as the Nazi Flag? The Confederate flag is neither purposefully desecrated nor "burned" Popular vote has had it removed from most public bulidings, a method of democracy you have aproblem understanding.

It is useless to argue with apathy, take what you can get from the public dole and cry about the evils of having to defend freedom, you really are a pathethic person
