While Mom just watches. Truly disgusting.
And when we point out their anti-Americanism, they act shocked and hurt, ,as though we were being mean to them.
They are stone walling gas lighting assholes, every god damn one.
Just because you don't like it doesn't make it unAmerican.
Correct. It is the hatred shown for the symbol of America. That is what makes it anti-American.
I guess there is a slim chance that the child is such a monster that he destroys everything in his path, flowers, mailboxes, pets, and the destruction of the flag was just how he responds to anything within reach of his violent out of control rampage.
Until I see evidence of that, I will stick with the obvious conclusion that the woman is a standards anti-American lefty and has raised her son to be an indoctrinated violent thug.
We have a constitutional right to destroy the flag. How many other constitutional rights that we have do you think are unAmerican?
My point was about the meaning of his actions. I made no point about whether or not he had the right to do as he did.
You addressed a point I did not make, because your pretense that the meaning of his actions was not anti-Americanism, is absurd and on some level, you know that.
You are defending it, because deep down you know that this anti-Americanism is part of the modern liberalism and you agree with it and support it.
Again, you say treatment of a flag in a way that is unacceptable to you is unAmeracanism. You're wrong. When you started claiming your political opponents were evil and unAmerican is when you, yourself started embracing unAmerican behavior.
Look bulldog, our 1st amendment rights are not being limited to the scope of any one person’s interpretation or opinion. This was an intentional outcome by the founding fathers. Let’s give them the crucial tools for liberty to function effectively and fairly, but let’s also word the document so it allows for judicial interpretations to occur with each case outcome dependent upon specifics and allow that legal precedent establishes guidelines/points of reference for future cases. IOW- let the courts sort it out…. as they’ve continued to do so to this day.
With this particular instance (even though it looked staged but maybe it was a door cam instead of person filming) focusing on the boy’s actions (acting out in a mildly hostile way/pretend to be hostile perhaps) do you think intentions matter in a court of law? Yes, they do and they should (think intentional versus accidental homicide) but sadly there are many court cases when a defendant’s intentions have been disregarded when other factors are highlighted by the defense. You can fill in the blank here for me bulldog…but what was the kid “trying to prove” or “demonstrate” since you’re backing his right to do it? What exactly are you backing is what I’m asking. I’m not asking for your opinion again that he has the right to do what he wants to his own flag….I am asking what do you think he’s trying to demonstrate in this footage.
