"I saw the flag as trying to copy the flag of the United States of America," he said, "and my patriotic spirit went a little too far."

Uhh, yeah, duuuuuuude!

It's just a piece of cloth, right? What about the First Amendment?

Amanda Henry, a junior at the University of Idaho, disagreed: "I think it's a hate crime disguised as patriotism."

Plant the seed, Amanda... hey, maybe ALL patriotic acts are really hate crimes in disguise! That fits! </sarcasm>

I cannot condone what was done; it was theft. Theft combined with extreme stupidity. Put enough gas on the blasted thing and it will burn! Plus using a tracable method of entry to perform the theft... gezz!

Now, although I cannot condone the theft; I have to admit that I CAN understand the frustration. How do you protest a homosexual's slap in the face on a campus? Heck, the way our Universities are today, if you turn down a homosexual advance you are likely to be accused of being a homophobe! To protest "their" flag in public? That would be very risky. You might even be burned at the stake!

However; the homosexuals can and do push their lifestyle on others every chance they get. In addition; they are immune from any objection. To do so is "intolerant".

If a guy hits on a girl, even by just saying she is pretty; the PC mindset on our campi gives her every right to slap the guy. However, for a guy to slap another guy for hitting on him, no matter how blatant and obnoxious; that is a hate crime!

I applaud the sentiments expressed by the trio, but again; cannot condone what they did. Nor can I have any respect for anyone who comes up with such a foolishly planed crime!

Just a thought here. If a hetro group made a "straight" flag, and the situation was reversed; would we have even heard this story?

If it had been an American Flag, the people would probably have cheered.

Great headline you won't see in print: "Flaming Flag Flap Flusters Flaming F*gs"

If these students had stolen another student's Confederate flag and destroyed it, nothing would be done and no charges would be filed.

"...a rainbow-colored flag..."

Betcha those colors run...

[Intimidator]

The flag was flame-retardant, however, so the students threw it in a dumpster.

Nothing a little kerosene wouldn't solve
