Pro-choice protesters burn American flag after Roe v. Wade reversal

My opinion is! If you don't like the flag that represents America and it's laws, perhaps you should move to another country!

Pro-choice protesters burn American flag in streets of Washington DC after Roe v. Wade reversal

The pro-choice Washington, D.C. protesters could be heard cheering as the American flag was burned

These are the same youmg democrats who can't answer simple questions:
How many Justices on the Supreme Court ? Err, thirty ?
Who did we fight in WW2 ? Err, England ?
Who won the American civil war ? Er, Canada ?

But they're real good at burning and looting.

Did they try to stop the legal transfer of power and attack the Capital?

Good point. Here's another:

Stephen Bannon was pardoned by Trump while under Federal indictment for defrauding the Build The Wall contributors of $1M.

How long a train of looters with shopping carts does $1M buy?

Say $500 of looted merch per cart. That's 2000 carts. Spaced in a line with a cart+driver every 8 feet. That's a line 16000 feet long--slightly over 3 miles!

That is, Bannon personally drove the equivalent of a 3 mile long cart train of looting, and Trump pardoned him for it. But nobody here says "boo" about the fraud, or the pardon.

So sorry boys, spare us your selective outrage.

Your posts have nothing to do with the burning of the flag but are just political.

Walmart flags burn the best.

It's also not illegal, unlike the things mentioned.

Flag burning is allowed by the Supreme court. And arguably no more disrespectful than the ones I see around here left up on flagpoles all night in the dark, or beat to sh*t by the wind and in tatters but still flying. At least a burned flag shows somebody cares and isn't just faking it.

So stop being so selective in your outrage. And remember that $1M in white collar fraud is equivalent to a 3 mile long procession of shopping carts. If that image doesn't help you understand where the real theft is going on in this country, then what will?

not the capitol, but did get in some hot water protesting pre release at some Justices homes

Violence seems to be the calling card of the left

you should step up your game, or maybe get a clue,

most pro shoplifters can beat $500 easily,

hell, I stopped one that had close to $2600 in a cart

So why was he pardoned? Because he is guilty, a felon, and a thief who bribed or somehow threatened Trump.

According to Any Progressive, automatically guilty, no evidence needed, no trial required, right!

That is the way justice is handed out in North Korea and other utopian nations. It is how it is done by our Federal Department of Justice. Guilty or innocent absolutely does not matter. Once zeroed in your life is over. Indicted tried and never convicted you are totally bankrupt, and ruined. You lose everything you worked for in your entire life.

In this case the State of NY has continued the investigation, for 2 years. They have all the Federal evidence, summoned dozens of witnesses, had all kinds of hearings but have not indicted Bannon for anything.

Maybe, just maybe, Trump had seen enough of what happens when radical, left wing, hard core Democrats, are appointed Judges and Prosecutors.

But 100% of Conservatives are always guilty and no Left wing progressive has ever committed the crime of jay walking in the 13.7 billion years our universe has been around.

If a mob is going to empty out a store, then the per cart value is going to average out. Not enough jewelry and electronics for everyone to get a big score. Some people have to leave with appliances and pillows. Or just couple cases of beer from the liquor department.

I'll stick with it....every $1M of illegal gains by Trump or one of his friends is equivalent to 3 miles of shopping cart looters. Trump's own "stop the steal" fund-raiser of $250M could get from Council Bluffs to Cheyenne with carts to spare.

Wow took some bad pills, affecting your thinking.

1) Bannon was under Federal indictment for taking part in a $25M "build the wall" fund raiser (the extent to which Trumpworld is willing to get scammed knows no bounds apparently), and then skimming $1M of it for his personal use.

2) While the FEDERAL prosecution was moving forward, Trump pardoned Bannon.

3) Accepting a pardon amounts for the record to an admission of guilt. Not a prosecutable admission (there was a pardon after all) but recipient is saying "yes I did it".

I remember when the sh*t hit the fan before the first impeachment trial. The defense of Trump here was "well has he been indicted of anything? No? Hah!"

Obviously guilty until proven innocent by a jury. Unless a pardon is issued, and excepted, in which case, guilty but without punishment.

And yet you still give Trump the benefit of the doubt and twist like mad to try to turn the subject away from the crooked Bannon and the crooked Trump. They have eyes, but they cannot see.

Back to the OP:

Burning flags is not my style. Flying one upside down for awhile does seem appropriate. The country is going through some stuff and Alito decided to pour gas on it. I guess if it's a full-on culture war, we'll see who has the numbers on their side.

[rayg]

Regardless if the burning the flag is or is not against the law, as far as I'm concerned It a grave insult against the country and to those that died for the country and flag! Of course the lefties love doing it..

Again you can't get Trump out of your mind as he lives in there, Lol!

[Allen]

I never saw any Pro-Life citizens burning the flag while R vs W was intact.

[RED]

If I locked you up and told you that you, your wife, and your children were going to be arrested and spend the rest of their lives in jail or at least absolute poverty, would you plead guilty to a crime you did not do?

I sure hope and pray you get that opportunity when your crimes against America are persecuted just like you have persecuted me and others here.

Well Ray it was Trump who gave us this court that took away a right from Americans. It's on him, and if you want to hide from that, it's your choice. But the reason for dragging him into this discussion is plain to see.

As for the protests, flag burning is not my thing either. But....I would not want to live in a country where the cops start busting heads because cloth gets burned. Nor would I particularly want to live in a country where people meekly accept having their rights taken away.

The question for you is whether or not you can see a larger principle behind the actions, or if you get stuck thinking about the burnt flag, or the conjured image of tiny babies. Notice they always stop at the babies. Live begins at conception and ends at birth for those people.
