"Flag Burner" Duct Taped to Flag Pole as Punishment by VFW Commander - Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | September 26, 2009 | BrianinMO

Here is a video report about a "Flag Burner" who was duct taped to a VFW Flagpole as punishment for his having burned an American Flag that flew over the post in Valley Falls, New York.

The man had gotten angry because the bartender at the post would not serve the man because he was drunk. In anger, he went outside, took the flag down and burned it. The flag had flown over a fox hole in Iraq where several Americans died.

The post commander hunted the man down and "gave him some options." The option the man chose was to be duct taped to the pole in a chair with a sign around his neck describing his actions! . . . (VIDEO)

Now, how long before the ACLU contacts the man, and convinces him that “his rights” were violated?

"gave him some options"

I'm guessing he only got about two options.
