re: I would participate in a flag burning to protest Trump's tweet

I do however honestly believe that the people doing these things... are not doing it to make any statement whatsoever other than to do something that they know drives the people they hate wild and gets under their skin. Really do you honestly think that burning a flag will ever in a million billion years make someone who sees the flag as a symbol of pride stop and say "Oh, you're upset about something, come in and lets talk about it." No, and they know this. They don't even want to talk about the problems, they want to make the other people feel as frustrated and angry as they feel like they do. It's not about fixing anything, its about lashing out.
