I've always found it strange that Americans tend to react strongly to flag burning, as if a person is being burned alive or something. "They burned our flag!!!" Actually, if they bought it, it's their flag.
Then I wonder if it's down to that creepy brainwashy Pledge thing they sometimes show kids being forced to do in American TV shows, assuming shools genuinely do do that to the children sometimes.
In the middle east Stars and stripes flag shops do a roaring trade according to amount I see getting burned over there.
Do you think that the trouble in the middle east comes down to flag sellers stirring things up so they can sell some flags?
I wouldn't put it past unscrupulous business men.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
