I didn't know that any states had flag protection laws. It's a good thing.

Don't get your hopes up. You can be a leftwingnut domestic terrorist around here and get one Dem President to pardon you and the next to be your buddy. She'll be a hero by next month.

True, but as the Vice Commander of my local American legion it's good to see things like this. We sponsor a flag protection amendment every congress, and have come as close as one vote to having it passed.

As much as I hate that family, this is a clear cut case of selective enforcement. That is patently UnConstitutional.

Well... praise Jaysus for "freedumb".

If you want to fuck with somebody's flag, go to Russia and fuck around with theirs. See how swell they will think it is.

 

[JW Frogen]

Fucking with the Russian flag is a creative way to get free passage to Siberia.

I think Paul Theroux tried it.

I'm SOOOOOOOO glad Russia is the standard by which we measure "freedumb" in this nation. It's such a relief, that there's still examples out there that make us look "not that bad".

My mother always told me "as long as people don't hit rock bottom, they always feel comfortable looking down on others". Heckovajob Nebraska.

You can come to Russia and to fuck with the American flag without any consequences, and you even give it for free.

I'm even happier the standard by which we measure intellect isn't you. There sure aren't many around here for YOU to look down and I'm sure your mother was looking down when she told you that.

Fuckwit.

If this passes muster...there's an awful lot of people who will go to jail for wearing flag apparel.

The Prez can only pardon someone of a Federal Crime, this is a state crime, which requires a governor pardon.

When that runs up against that 'free speech' thing, these sort of laws usually are found lacking.

The American Legion has found a sponsor in each of the past 6 congresses to introduce the Flag Amendment. If it should pass (and we have missed it by one vote in the Senate) it would go to the states for ratification. It would then be part of the Constitution.

I wonder which other States have some type of Flag protection laws?

Won't matter, unless the SUPREMES again overturn decades of precedent.

IF such a unDemocratic thing should pass, maybe I'll make it a hobby to report anyone, any business, any organization who does not follow the Flag Code E X A C T L Y.
