I get the impression it's less about constructive criticism and more about hating America by the scenes of young protestors in America burning the flag of the United States. Both the left and the right should be mindful of not becoming traitors giving comfort to enemies that would like to destroy our goverment and make America their colony.
- nullindividual 3y agoBurning the American flag does not make for a traitor. It makes for an individual expressing the greatest right we have — freedom of speech. Suppressing freedom of speech is the most anti-American stance one could take.
- labrador 3y agoI don't give a shit about flags but as a veteran it still pains me. I think flag burners like Koran burners just like causing pain.
- nebula8804 3y agoAs a veteran have you considered that you have a mental blindspot caused by your military training?
- labrador 3y agoAs a flag burner have you considered you've fallen for propaganda that seeks to divide the nation rather than fix it's problems? There's literally nothing wrong with being happy to be an American despite it's flaws

- gibbitz 3y agoThis is supposed to get everyone's attention. Symbilolicly it represents the betrayal the protester feels from the government. Sadly, too many people are desensitized to this. I guess if the only thing that will get real attention is burning yourself in protest, then there will be fewer protesters and the government and corporations can continue doing whatever they want.
