They haven't said exactly when or where they will do this, whether it will be done when President Trump is present and/or in one of the usual "protest zones" out of sight of normal people.

But you can probably count on the far-left media to give it more coverage than they give the actual 4th of July celebration.

'Burn that rag!' Activists to desecrate the flag at Trump July Fourth rally

by Steven Nelson
June 24, 2019 04:38 PM

Sparks will fly in Washington as activists torch an American flag to protest President Trump's July Fourth "Salute to America," which Trump claims will be one of the largest events in city history.

Longtime flag-burning activist Gregory "Joey" Johnson of the Revolutionary Communist Party told the Washington Examiner, "I'm going to be there in D.C.," and "that rag of empire and oppression is going to burn."

Johnson is well known for winning a 1989 Supreme Court case that invalidated state laws against flag burning. He declined to share the time and location of next week's protest or say how many other activists will participate.

Trump will appear at the Lincoln Memorial at 6:30 p.m., ahead of fireworks at dusk.

I wish these America-hating far-leftists would move to one of the socialist countries they love. Venezuela pops to mind.

I guess 2 can play to that game. Let's burn some remaining old Soviet Union flags to watch them triggering.

Unbelievable

In just about any other country on earth, this dirtbag would be put to death for his actions. But he whines about oppression here..

It's what libs do - they hate America. I would be surprised if they did not do something like that.

Just think of what America's enemies do, and that is generally what a lib will do.

Default Burning The Flag? Not On My Watch

This very sick act does not surprise me in the least. I hope it motivates even more centrist Dems to leave the party. July 4 needs to be a happy time, and we need to salute our precious Old Glory.

Or, perhaps, an asteroid in outer space.

I find "protest zones" at least as offensive.
