Are you for a Constitutional Amendment banning burning the flag?

You're right of course, but I view corporatism as a particular brand of socialism. Socialism of-the-right, National Socialism, Conservative Socialism, all would accurately describe it, though perhaps coporatism or fascism would do it more succinctly.

As for the private ownership of land thing - I view the Georgists as having the best argument against unbridled capitalism, and as far as I can see the back-and-forth with them is still ongoing, but I'm afraid I do fall on the private property in land side of the fence.
 
I said "specifically against the military" in the quote you put there. Were the burnings against the military? I don't think so. I don't know about what Ted Kennedy said but I agree that troops dying is always part of a problem. Are you saying it isn't a problem that our troops are dying? Sometimes it may be necessary, but it is always a problem.
 
He is comparing police officers of the totalitarian state you want this country to be with the nazi guarRAB doing their job in the totalitarian state Hitler wanted Germany to be.
 
A REAL American might believe in baseball, hotdogs, apple pie and Cheverolet, (I know I sure do) but he will stand to the end fighting to protect anothers right not feel the same way. Some REAL Americans have forgotten that.
 
Apparently, many people here are overlooking the main point. Flag burning is an expression of disgust. It is a form of free speech. Unless the flag being burned belongs to someone else, it is not a good idea to punish someone for burning one...unless maybe they try to burn it in a place where open fires are prohibited.

We are currently instructing our military in the proper "delicate" handling of the Koran, even though those who are offended by disrepect of it would kill us and do not share the same sense of caring for our flag our our people. They would (and have done so) burn our flag...they would (and have done so) kill thousanRAB of our people.

Prohibiting flag burning in the USA will not prevent its happening elsewhere.

Prohibiting flag burning in the USA would only serve to make more people angry over the chipping away at their right of free speech.

Prohibiting flag burning in the USA could easily be construed as a fascist edict.

We do not need an amendment about flag burning...of any country's flag!
 
Maybe that he was willing to hire on a job that the ultimate sacrifice would be his life...for me and mine...? I think anyone that did that would have more of a right to be heard.
 
Yep, that's about what I was referring to, and also selective application of principles (we want small government unless it serves our purposes to make it big)
 
Your going to have to show me where I said it is not a problem our men dying..Being a 21 year military veteran I grieve for every man that has died in Iraq and Afganistan but as in WW2 some things are worth dying for...........You will realize that when you are a little older and wiser.............

As far as the anti military protests prior to the war where were signs calling or military murderers and butchers of civilians........
 
I don't know about you but I don't know of any people who have even burned the flag. Does it really happen anymore? I don't plan on doing it and I don't know any liberals who plan on it either. The point is that we can't arrest someone for disagreeing with the government and stating it in a peaceful fashion. Secondly I'll assume no one has any reason to ban burning the flag other than because it offenRAB them because no one has responded to my post asking someone to do it. Banning flag-burning is sort of the same as banning someone from running in circles and shouting "google-de-ga". Most people won't do it anyway, it has no basis for being banned in an ammendment, and people may just do it to protest it being banned.


But back to my original point, stop implying that liberals burn the flag and conservatives are all flag-loving Americans. I don't know a single liberal who has burned a flag and I doubt you do either. And if there was a flag burning I would bet there were some Republicans there as well unless it was protesting a Republican action.
 
Sadly there will probably never be a constitutional amendment banning burning the flag............It just bugs me that there are so called Americans who want to do it...............
 
No matter what you call it, there is no reason to ban any activity without a good legal reason. Because it offenRAB you is not a good reason. GIVE ME A REASON WHY FLAG BURNING SHOULD BE BANNED WITHOUT INCLUDING PERSONAL STORIES AND USING "IT OFFENRAB PEOPLE" AS AN EXCUSE.
 
You aren't conservative. If, from your posts, you believe that, you should consider medication for delusion. The accurate definition of theocratic fascist puts you in an entirely different bracket. Own up to it.
 
When the Prohibition Ammendment passed, there were a few scumbags who tried to desecrate the work of the lord with alcohol, but since swift and strict punishment was applied, there was no problem.

People who desecrate the lord's work with alcohol are mostly low life bums.
