AMERICAN FLAG IN PHOENIX - NO AMERICANS OR VETS COULD DO ANYTHING
This is not about politics and rhetoric, it is about a direct threat to our country. Those of you that don't live in Arizona will maybe get a chance to see the other side of what the news is telling you. If this offends you great, then I have truly accomplished what I set out to do.
I understand that sometimes we don't see eye to eye on certain things, but that is the right our forefathers fought for. I am an American before I am anything else. For those of you who choose to dismiss this. If you believe that this is okay I believe you are a traitor to this country and everything it stands for.
I am not a racist and I am not a Nazi this has nothing to do with race, it has to do with respect to the country that is continually taking you in and turning a blind eye to your agenda.
Homeland Security was designed to identify and defend America from Terrorist acts yet yesterday it let illegal and legal citizens of this country desecrate the Flag. People were spitting on it, stomping on it and burning it with cigarettes. One soldier who had just returned from Iraq tried to grab the flag and was thrown to the ground by the Capitol Police and Homeland Security.
It amazes me how many people will stand against the American People while all the while prospering from our system and our government.
Too those of you that will forward this to your friends I applaud you for the courage to stand up for the country in which you live.

Since the image appears to be broken, it's a shot of an American flag with "Impeach Brewer, Deport Arpaio" painted on.
So if we agree that the "rights our forefathers fought for" are important, and flag desecration as a matter of free speech is legal, what's the problem?
What's the "direct threat to our country"? How do you know who's legal or not? Who was the soldier? Why is there no photo of him being arrested? Where are the photos of people stomping on, spitting on, or burning the flag?
I looked this up and even though it brought me to crazy wingtard forums. There are about 20 people at the rally and one state trooper standing there.It appears they had a legal right to have a demonstration. Nobody being arrested trying to stop it.
Thanks to Valeyard & Liberalgunner for explaining the photo and event. As with most rightwing outrage, it's all about "How DARE the 'other side' protest something that *I* like???? HOW DARE THEY??? Who do they think they are???? TREASON!"
It was very fine for T-GOPers to disrupt Town Hall meetings, to threaten citizens attending who were simply asking questions, to protest with openly carried guns (even if legal), to march at rallies with Hitler signs and other very racist signage.
As long as it's rightwingers "proteesting" then it's all *good.* But let someone leftwing protest - in a legal manner - then it's an outrage and treason and these people should have terrible things done to them, etc.
Yeah: typically hypocritical rightwing double standards on display.
Some horrible people who hate America wear the flag as clothing!
That used to be a crime. Now it just means you're a patriotic Republican.
