Trump Continues His Burning Of the Constitution

[cnm]

Free speech is "speech".

Lol

How to show/pretend one hasn't heard of Citizens United.

 

[cnm]

Burning the flag is detestable however denying the freedom of expression is worse. I am sure the courts will rule this unconstitutional.

What will that change?

 

[rightwinger]

Free speech is "speech".
Burning the flag is only done by crazy leftists.
If they burn the flag they go to prison, so don't burn the flag, simple.

Great nations realize that protest is part of Democracy

Great. I will staple his executive order to the next flag i burn. I'll see if it stops the flames. Maybe he should sign an EO declaring he is skinny and not a fat ****?

 

[flewism]

Burning the flag of the United State is free speech. Burning the gay flag or BLM flag is a hate crime, only in America.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Burning the gay flag or BLM flag is a hate crime, only in America.

That is also free speech, unless its not your flag.

 

[Papageorgio]

Burning the flag of the United State is free speech. Burning the gay flag or BLM flag is a hate crime, only in America.

Any flag, any book, should all be free speech.

I can understand why some people want to protest against the actions of their government

Protesting against atrocities committed by the government is not allowed in Authoritarian regimes.

I can also understand why most people stand at attention and salute the flag too.

It's not the first unconstitutional executive order.

You must know free speech has been under assault for decades. Recently if you said the virus came from a lab, you got silenced. Anything said opposing the phony vax got you silenced. Much more is obvious.

Trump is merely following a precedent set by others, but this pleases his dumb followers.

Americans are dumb. They can’t see the obvious tyranny coming our way.

Tyranny is coming our way? You mean it is already here. Things are so bad, you can't even go to DC and carjack a car or rob a liquor store for God's sake without being arrested.

Section 1. Purpose. Our great American Flag is the most sacred and cherished symbol of the United States of America, and of American freedom, identity, and strength. Over nearly two-and-a-half centuries, many thousands of American patriots have fought, bled, and died to keep the Stars and Stripes waving proudly. ​

It's almost as if Chump hasn't repeatedly expressed his disdain for those who fought, bled and died in America's wars.
He was not silly enough to be caught up in keeping any flag waving proudly.

More of the lies that have been proven false

The Constitution was written for a moral and religious people.

No dummy, it is the law of the land and applies to all within it's jurisdiction.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

No dummy it is the law of the land and applies to all.

The Constitution was written for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other,
John Adams

Moreover

I agree to this Constitution, with all its Faults, if they are such: because I think a General Government necessary for us, and there is no Form of Government but what may be a Blessing to the People if well administred; and I believe farther that this is likely to be well administred for a Course of Years, and can only end in Despotism as other Forms have done before it, when the People shall become so corrupted as to need Despotic Government, being incapable of any other.

In a supreme act of irony, President Bone Spur has outlawed the burning of the US flag, as part of his campaign of nationalist socialism.

The Supreme Court ruled in 1989 that burning the US flag is free speech, and they were correct.

I spent more than 20 years of my life supporting and defending the Constitution of these United States on active duty.

I detest any ****** who burns our flag as much as anyone. I especially detest those who desecrated the flag on January 6.

One of the things which makes our country so exceptional is that we protect the free speech of even the people we disagree with.

Trump, on the other hand, is so fragile that he uses the full force of the federal government to silence his critics in business, the media, and our universities. He even has students grabbed off the street in broad daylight for exercising their free speech.

In his haste to attack those who burn the flag, Donald Trump is setting the Constitution ablaze and turning it to ashes.

When will his Nazi wannabe followers ever wake up?

This will be one of the most shameful EOs ever placed into the history books:

Prosecuting Burning of The American Flag

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1. Purpose.

No, he didn't. An EO is not a law.

The Constitution was written for a moral and religious people.

It was written to protect against immoral, bigoted religious sects and the religious violence that had plagued Europe.

Also against the ones who take away any right to worship, because of their bigotry against religion!

 

[IDIOCRACY]

I vote allow people to burn flags if they want to, so long as we can bring back stoning for such an occasion.
