A comment on Trump signs order to criminally charge those who burn US flag in protest. Parent comment
I love an America that has free speech, including burning the flag. That America is dead, assassinated by the President.
I love an America that has rule of law, not rule by executive order. That America is dead, killed by Congressional incompetence and pettiness.
I love an America where the President has limits on his power. That America is dead, killed by judicial inaction.
I have the urge to burn a flag to say: This? This thing that you are turning the country into? This is not America.
