IT REPRESENTS RACISM, SEGREGATION, SLAVERY, UNJUST WARFARE "VIET NAM, IRAQ", IMPERIALISM, AND ALL OF YOU GOOD HEARTED AMERICANS DON'T HAVE A CLUE!!!
We lost 58,000 American troops in VietNam under this flag because we were fighting those dreaded communist Viet Cong but President Bill Clinton decides after tasting the sweetness of ML's honey its time to restore relations with our enemy.
George W. says Saddam Hussein has stockpiles of chemical and nuclear weapons and Ossama Bin Laden is a mastermind of the terroist attacks on the World Trade Center, just another lie under that rag they call the American flag and pledge allegience to!
The only ones to die under the Confederate flag were those trying to deter an invading army and led by a corrupt government but on the other hand thousands perished under the stars and stripes!
Under our STARS AND STRIPES we are witnessing the worst economic disaster ever!!!!
HOPEFULLY, our first dark skinned President can keep printing more and more money to help save our asses but I think in my mind its the same as saying you have cancer and putting a band aid on it!!!

I see the flag of a country which stated out well but then burned the South, flattened central Europe and is now run by foreigners and anti-Western Marxists. That's why I designed these revolutionary flags.

God how I wish we could separate the Southern states from the rest of the country. They could have their own Right-wing, religious fundamentalist, socially conservative, third-world theocracy.

And the rest of would be free to continue down the path of normal human evolution.

There is no such thing as normal, at least that is what you liberal types say.

I think it should be a Crime to burn the American Flag while in America! (Exception of the American Legion who 'retires' the flag in a ceremony by burning them, and thats the only exception).

People fought and died for the Symbol of Freedom that the Flag stands for! I served in the Military myself, way back in the 70s, and I swore and allegiance to that Flag that I am proud of. To see it desecrated by idiots who have no self esteem for themselves, or Country, really bothers me to no end!

Sure, I can understand the idiots in other Countries who burn our flag in protest, because they hate the 'great Satan' that they think America has become, but, if you ask any one of them, they would give thier right arm to come to America and enjoy its freedoms!!! Go figure!

Flag burners? Give them a one way ticket to any Country that they choose and dont let them come back!

May the LORD Bless each of you.

I wish you well...

Jesse

Making it a crime to burn a flag would be an example of restricting citizen's freedom, which in turn would take away from the flag's symbolism.

I despise the federal government and as the so-called "American" flag is actually the federal flag, I refuse to fly it, ever. Gadsden flag for me...

We are not a free country anymore. If you think that go read all the federal laws and regulations sometime.
