Burn, Baby, Burn!

One's patriotism is under constant suspicion in these United Snakes. Thus, the empty symbolism of nationality becomes an object of perverse veneration.
As fearful as some conservatives and weak-willed legislators are about flag-burning liberals, I’d be willing to bet that more conservatives than liberals will engage in unlawful flag-related behavior this weekend–in many cases an unfortunate byproduct of combining patriotism with ignorance. And that would be true even if flag burning were made illegal, rather than just being the legally proper way to dispose of a worn flag.
More on the stupid rag, & its abuse.
