Oh yes I do, but if need be, I'm willing to pay the price for my actions. Looked like the protesters were not willing to do that for their actions.
Good for you for accepting the consequences, but according to the law of the land, you don't have the right to use violence against protesters.
What's really sad is that you would be disrespecting the US Constitution and the rights enumerated to all US citizens by using force against protesters. You'd literally be a hypocrite.

This begs the question, why do these things need killing? The answer is that they threaten the US Constitution and the rights of US citizens. So you're pretty fricking wrong and also quite dumb. EAD
Not as fricking dumb as an asshat that answers his own questions in the same post.

I never said the flag guys in this video were "honorable" or "respectful". Also, that's entirely irrelevant.

It's a good question. Ask yourself why some people care so damned much about their precious confederate battle flags.

Yes it's their right to disrespect the flag.
I have two pieces of advise for these folks.
#1 Don't do it near me.
#2 If you really want to disrespect the flag I suggest you burn it.......after you have doused it gasoline and wrapped it around your sorry arse.

Or what? You'll assault them and go to jail while they face zero charges?
Good idea. That'll show em.

The Marines exist so that Americans can fly the US flag upside down if they choose to do so.
Wrong. They exist to kill the enemy and break their stuff.

You just can't read. I said I'm willing to pay for my actions no matter if it is right or wrong. Those clowns were not. That is what is wrong with this country now. People do, but not willing to pay for their actions.

No, he can read just fine. You evidently just don't understand what a right is. By your formulation, you have the "right" to murder someone.

Didn't these meatheads fight for that guy's right to fly the flag upside down?

Yep. Not a difficult concept.
My brother, who is also serving overseas, has never had any problem with this behavior - we love that we can do those things (fly upside down/burn) to a flag if we want. If we can't then we're just like the countries we are fighting against.
I didn't read the whole thread but I'm sure there are plenty of e-toughguys saying how they'd beat up on someone they saw doing this.

Why do people care about a fricking flag so much? It's cloth that can't protect you from the government or feed you. Its a symbol of oppression thanks to the last 100+ years of wars. Also save me the fighting for freedom bs. Military personnel are nothing more than mercenaries for big business at this point. If the military cared about freedom they'd storm every state/federal capital building and demand change. Yet all these "heroes actually do is complain about not getting enough admiration, someone exercising their rights that apparently other countries can protect without war and when someone plays dress up in their uniform.
