Go
Ahead and Burn Our Flag
BUT FIRST -
What do we do about people who want to burn the American
flag? You know...those folks who want to
stomp all over it, or spit on it to make some sort of
"statement." Some say the first Amendment gives
us the right to desecrate the American flag. Others want
to make it illegal. This is a tough one.
What should we do? I can solve this one easily. I believe
we should have a simple requirement.
Let flag desecration be legal, but you have to have three
sponsors who will give you written
permission. Those sponsors should be from a panel of
experts who might be considered
"qualified" to give such permission.
First, you need a signature of a war veteran (preferably
not from the John Kerry camp!(TruthSavvy!) .
How about a Marine who fought at Iwo Jima?
The men who raised that flag over Iwo Jima did so on the
bodies of thousands of dead Americans, who
gave their lives so a few could raise the flag in defiant
claim of that last island in a long, bloody march to
defeat the Japanese.
What did those Marines think about the flag as they
watched their comrades get slaughtered?
Every battle with the Japanese was horrific. Each day
meant half of everyone you knew would be
dead tomorrow.
Your own future was a coin flip away from a bloody death
in a place your family couldn't pronounce.
Or you could ask a Vietnam vet who spent years in a POW
prison, tortured in small, filthy cells unfit
for a dog. Or Korean War soldiers who rescued half a
nation from communism, or the Desert Storm
warriors who repulsed a bloody dictator from raping and
pillaging an innocent country, to find
people from a foreign land kiss our flag as we drove
through their streets.
To every American soldier who ever fought for the United
States, that flag represented your mother
and father, your sister and brother, your friends,
neighbors, your fellow countrymen...In fact it
stands for your freedom, guaranteed by your nation. Those
who fought, fought for that flag.
Those who died, died for that flag. I wonder what they
would say if someone asked their permission to
burn a flag?
Next, you need a signature of an immigrant. Preferably
one who left their family behind. Their brothers
and sisters languish in their native land, often subject
to tyranny, poverty and failure, while America
offers freedom and prosperity.
Some have seen friends and family be tortured and
murdered by their own government for daring to do
many things we take for granted every day. Many give
their lives in the struggle just to touch our
shores, even as America turns its back and returns them
to face persecution once again in their native
land. For those who risked everything simply for the
chance to become an American...what
kind of feelings do they have for the flag when they
pledge allegiance to it for the first time?
Go to a naturalization ceremony and see for yourself, the
tears of pride, the thanks, the love and
respect of this nation, as they finally embrace the flag
of our nation as their own. Then, walk up and
ask one of them if it would be OK to spit on the flag.
Last, you need a signature from someone living in a
foreign land who cannot get here. Say, Rwanda.
Or maybe Bosnia. Maybe even Haiti. You might have to move
fast, as they flee oppressors who attack
them with machete's or shoot at them randomly in a
marketplace. I'm sure they will never question
your sanity as they duck for cover.
The writers of the Declaration of Independence are long
gone. I wonder what they thought of the
American flag as they drafted that document? They knew
such an act would drag the nation into
war with England, the greatest power on earth. Did the
flag mean anything to them?
They knew failure of independence meant more than just a
disappointment. It meant a noose would
be snugly stretched around their necks. I wonder how
they'd feel if someone asked their permission
to toss the flag in a mud puddle?
In the absence of family, the absence of the precious
shores of home, in the face of overwhelming odds
and often in the face of death itself, the American flag
inspires those who believe in the American
dream, the American promise, the American vision...
Americans who don't appreciate the flag are usually those
who don't appreciate this nation. And
those who appreciate this nation appreciate the American
flag.
So if you would, before you desecrate the American flag,
before you spit on it, before you ignore it or
despise it...please ask permission. Not from the
constitution. Not from some obscure law. Not from
the politicians or the pundits.
Please ask permission from those who founded the nation.
Please ask those who defended our shores
so that we may be free today. Please ask those who fought
to reach our shores so that they may
partake in the American dream.
And then, please ask permission from those who died
wishing they could, just once ... or once
again...see, touch or kiss the flag that stands for our
nation, the United States of America...the
greatest nation on earth.
To all of you that wish to BURN our Flag, I have one
thing to say to all of you (I believe I speak for
the Informed MAJORITY of Americans)!
We know what you stand for! TREASON! We know what you are
up to! GLOBALIZATION!
Check out Communist's Goals and the Ten Planks of the
Communist Manifesto and read why these
TRAITORS/collaborationists want to BURN our Flag and what
is going on in our nation..
These thoughts are mind-awakening
Like I say, I have only one thing to say to you ALL!
GET THE HELL OUT OF OUR COUNTRY!
FIND YOURSELVES A godless COUNTRY SOMEWHERE ELSE. THERE
ARE PLENTY ON
EVERY Continent THAT WOULD GLADLY TAKE YOU IN. WE DON'T
WANT YOU HERE!
You are nothing but
COWARDS - Scum of the Earth
