Funny, the GOP says they want smaller government but they want to make ignorant laws taking away more freedoms.

I personally don't care what someone does to the flag if the purpose is to make a statement. That is their right and statements are needed at times to make our government take notice and do their jobs.

However, what pisses me off are the people after 9/11 who believe having a flag no matter what condition in their car window is patriotic. Or people who leave flags on their porches or poles during rainstorms, or touching some plant because they don't garden well.

To me that is showing far more disrespect to the flag than someone burning it for a cause they feel deeply over.

As for patches or t-shirts I don't care because those are not flags but replicas of such and hey, if I could find a flag patch and had a holey pair of jeans I might put one on.

As for signing a flag (ala the pics above), I'd be fucking honored to have a presidential signature on a flag, no matter what president. That would be framed and hung in my home. To me that is a symbol of respect for country and the office of the president. You cannot seperate the office from the flag so why should a signature on the flag be different.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
