On the other side of the coin...
If I see you desicrating a flag, I will stomp a mud-hole in your ass. I consider it an attack on this great nation, and consider it my duty as a member of the armed forces. | Then you might as well kick somebody's ass for putting Support Our Troops magnets on their car, or kick somebody's ass for endorsing candidates, or kick somebody's ass for saying they think the President's policies are wrong....because it's all political speech and it's all protected.
And for the record, I would never intentionally desecrate the American flag. | You are missing the point. |
