LOL, so arson isn't a crime now huh? They should be able to go right on someone else's property and burn a flag that doesn't belong to them and is connected to their house? I swear you left wingers are losing it.

He wouldn't be deported for disliking the country, he'd be deported for arson. A felony. Although I guess felonies are ok as long as they are done because you hate a President with an R next to his name. And you talk about respect for American laws?

...I was just being intentionally annoying. Off with their heads!

Actually, I burned a flag once. I was pretty young, maybe 7 or 8 years old. I found it laying on the road, all dirty and wrinkled (probably had been run over a few times). Well, I took it home, stole my dad's lighter, and burned it in the backyard. I remember thinking at the time how profoundly patriotic I was, which is probably why I remember the whole scene so vividly even now. To this day, I believe that is the most patriotic thing I've ever done, besides perhaps, donating $3 to the Paralyzed Veterans of America.

And to think, some people here say I'm an America-hater.

This is the proper and rational response. Burning the flag in and of itself isn't, nor should it ever be, illegal. However, from the sounds of the article the flag wasn't theirs and the flag was on an individual's private property, and most importantly the flag was connected to an individual's home. So it's not so much that they burned a flag as much as it is that they committed arson, and for that reason they should be prosecuted.

Point to what?
Burning the flag of a country is a political comment on that country. American flags get burned all over the world.
It can be both and the Yale incident is such an example.

Yes, it will be an example of how using someone else's property and putting their lives at risk for a cliche political statement gets you time in prison.

I love posts like this, it shows just how far to the extreme left the left wingers are. So going onto someone else's property and burning their personal property is ok as long as it's a political statement. Welcome to Left Land, commie style.

What I find all too typical of the Borg is that it makes foolish assumptions about those not within its circuitry.

The sentiment "love it or leave it" is right on!!! Especially for those who come over here to take advantage of all that our country has to offer and who do NOT love it. I say.....then leave it.

These people almost set this house on fire, which could have killed someone. They are lucky someone didn't fill them full of buckshot.

What assumptions would that be exactly? That you're capable of thought not faxed to you by democraticunderground? My mistake.
