[In response to a Fox News article about a woman arrested for burning an American flag on a highway overpass]
ShadowBanned517: you either love America or you're a democrat.
wrs11: There are no democrats, they belong to the socialist/muslim party

It’s a strip of cloth, boys. It’s not America. The rights and values you claim to cherish are unharmed when the flag is burnt.
DarkPhoenix commented
Because clearly the party supporting imprisoning children, forcing news networks to cover them positively or be attacked, and getting the Justice Department to look into charging their enemies are the ones who totally love America…
Or maybe it’s they love America, but they don’t love DEMOCRACY…
WhiteNoise commented
Well, America really can use a socialist party...

ShadowBanned517: you either love Trump or you're a democrat.
Fixed.

Someone needs a dictionary…that’s all I’ll say about it.

The Boy Scouts of America burn a Stars & Stripes when it becomes too tatty to fly: it's seen as the most dignified method of disposal.
You're socialists/muslims then, OPs.
Swede commented
Isn’t there some precedent that burning the flag is part of freedom of speech? (Texas vs Johnson.)
If the burning can cause harm, you might be arrested for that.
If you love America, you wouldn’t elect a barely literal, narcissistic, bumbling, orange buffoon.
The current administration is busy destroying the country and killing off endangered species like the bald eagle.
There is no socialist party in the US, and Islam is a religion, not a political ideology.
Most islamists are conservatives, misogynists and probably hate flag-burnings as much as you do.

I’m not a socialist by any means (or even American), I’d say I’m center-right. But by heavens would I rather be one than a fascist Trumpet…
The_Crimson_Ghost commented
I’ve lived in the US for 4 decades now & there isn’t much to love.
At this point, I’d rather burn a republican than a flag.
Chloe commented
You must think everyone left of George W. Bush is a socialist then. I'm still pro-capitalism, though it would need regulation.

@Timjer :
"I’m not a socialist by any means (or even American), I’d say I’m center-right."
That means here in the US you're a far-left radical :-)
Confused?
