Those Who Burn American Flags

The 'peaceful' occupy protestors broke into Oakland City hall, vandalized it and burned an American flag. Is this what our vets fought for?
Nancy Pelosi says; 'God bless them for their spontaneity. It’s independent … it’s young, it’s spontaneous, and it’s focused.'
Oakland Mayor Jean Quan, you reap what you sow.
This happened this weekend. Goodbye to any support you thought you once had. BTW, don't give me your 1st Amendment crap. That flag was stolen from inside.

I'd never burn the Polish flag. But then, I'd never identify the Polish flag/country/nation with those to seek to take advantage of the Polish nation at all cost and those who try rob us of our present and future. It's sad to see youth that doesn't have a sense of ownership of their country.

I have a 20 y.o. daughter who has worked since she was 15 part time. She paid every cent for her first car. Not because I couldn't go out and buy her one, but because she needed to learn that nothing in life worthwhile is without hard work. I remember her thanking me for not buying her one after she saved up to purchase it saying' It feels like mine', and it was. She has since worked through high school and into college knowing the value of a buck. Where I'm from, most of the kids are hard workers and respectful and would probably knock the snot out of these occupy skinny jean wearing, mommas basement dwelling, indoctrinated self entitled scumbags.
I'm all for protesting, but these commies are a criminal cancer that needs to be cut out. They destroyed children's art projects and did massive damage that has to be paid for by the taxpayers therefore doing more harm to those that they PRETEND to care about. Nothing like the youth around here that, while at times rough and tumble, serve our country in disproportionate numbers and know the value of hard work and personal responsibility.
I almost long for the inevitable confrontation where they can be spanked like the little children they are. Fleabaggers.

And no, I don't see the Polish youth acting this way. Communism is a not too distant attribute that their parents could tell them about. I saw an interview where this Occupy gal was ranting about hating all corporations and saying they need to all burn. The Journalist then replied 'Is that the new iphone you have' and the stupid wannabe says 'No, it's the old one.' ...LOL...useful idiots.
I hear there is a Dixieland area in Poland where Southern American music and Southern bbq is loved. Or was that Ukraine?

I'm not going to say what I'm thinking about those people because Erik would have to permanently ban me on the forum.
At least they should be stripped from US citizenship. They don;t have to love the country where they are living, but they should respect it.

Exp. considering that, given how today study/working hard and having a job are almost unrelated (while sinking the economy and getting a golden parachute is), I guess that the "hard workers and respectful kids" who actually find a job have God supporting them - and thus a strategic advantage.
Now, start to send to jail some of the guys who leveled Wall Street and the savings of millions, instead of giving them golden parachutes, and you will get "skinny jean wearing, mommas basement dwelling, indoctrinated self entitled scumbags" (and I could add "communists" given how fast they grabbed taxpayer money when *their* asses were on the line) getting their due for real.
But I guess the guys at Lehman never burned flags while building empires based on subprimes with money they didn't own, so maybe is this the reason why they get a free "out of jail" card.

It's a good thing this forum isn't moderated any longer, isn't it?

I work since I was 15 and I still don't know the value of a buck. In one place a buck can buy two hours of the same work of the same person, in another an hour, in another half-an-hour and in another 10 minutes. I came to conclusion there's no such a thing as value of buck or work. It's all one big joke.
And finding a job may be very tricky in current economy, especially when one isn't one of these smoothtalking manipulative types that can squeeze into any telemarketing, customer service, etc. job.

But if we're going to entertain this little debate, I'd say that a fundamental building block of a democracy is that people can be morons like those clowns in Oakland without disappearing into some Gulag somewhere. Sure, arrest them for theft and vandalism, but that's it.
Oh, and about burning the flag? I say burn it. I've got two more you can burn. Go ahead. It's a piece of cloth. You can NEVER EVER burn what it stands for, no matter how hard you try.

As much as it pains me, I have to agree with you. The Occupy (Insert City name here) group isn't doing themselves any favors by engaging in these types of idiotic behavior. It only gets them bad PR.

These dirtbags don't even care if they are doing themselves a favor or not. These people want the violent non political overthrow of the US government and its capitalistic based society and they are for the establishment of some pseudo-commie form of dictatorship where they don't have to work, try, contribute or anything else and yet still get to eat and live for free.

Doomie said it best, "They don't have to love the country where they are living, but they should respect it."

I bet King George said the same thing about John Adams and that "gang".

Really? I'm sure some of them would like that, but most probably don't.

It's a quite extraordinary claim. Could you provide any proof? Also, who are "these people"?

Love it or leave it, I would throw the lot of them out of the country. Strip them of citizenship. They might have some right to burn the flag, but I should have the right to whip their butt for doing so.
They can try for the "violent" overthrow, but I and many more will fight back with more force. Screw them.
