One: I'm all for free speech, if that isn't evident. Two: I didn't point out any scenario; someone else did, and I want to know what kind of bastard would piss on the flag. Something tells me you think I'm some fascist, anti-people, anti-American, which I'm not, especially considering I was born in the U.S.
