People are retarded. I was sitting in the coffee shop next to what looked like two middle aged men. One was reading the other one a bunch of his anti obama shite he had received via email on his phone. All of it was the typical horse shite you expect from the chain email crowd. He even pulled up the fake picture of obama's "muslim" ring. Both he and his friend thought everything they were reading and seeing was 100% real.

I disagree with his flying of the upside down flag, but it is his right.

shite like this was just as bad when Bush was in office coming from the left. The scariest thing about all this partisan politics and propaganda is that each side believes only the others side is involved in this nonsesne. Thats dangerous.

I think he's saying, "I'm a nurse and now I feign indignity on behalf of the armed forces personnel because I take my political cues from The View."

US Code Title 36 Chapter 10
quote:
§176. Respect for flag
quote:
(a) The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.
quote:
(k) The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.

I don't beat my wife, but I do listen to rush and I own 14 guns. Am I too getting left behind? Also, who's leaving me behind? You? Gay people wanting to be married? Welfare reciepients? Pro-choice baby killers?

One is clearly a political statement, and repugnant as it is, it is protected by the First Amendment. The other is a false distress signal and can cause first responders to waste their time checking out a non-emergency. Even worse, the more idiots do that as a protest, the greater the chance that someone will ignore a legitimate distress call because they mistake it for a political statement.
