I told my husband about that comment "such a small thing as flag desecration" he said sounds like his golfing buddy a Lt. Gen USAF Rtd. who lives next door. Then he said must be Air Force Type too. I checked and told him Yep!
The flag desecration amendment move is on the same order as hate crimes legislation, an unprovable crime of the mind, and anti-constitution as well. I would venture to say that an equally large number of Army and Marine General Officers as well as Navy Admirals, would be against such an amendment, but whether they are or are not, does not change the facts in the case. It is a dead political issue and does not do the republican cause any favors by continually being touted as a front page issue. I wonder what your stand on hate crimes legislation might be hmmm? I thought so.
PS, you don't suppose that something might be done to curb the rampant muslim and mexican invasion of this country, and the out of control abortion of the next three or four generations of real Americans, before we get to the flag burning amendment, and for that matter, why isn't John Kerry up on charges of war crimes, since what he did was far worse than flag burning IMHO!
There is nothing stopping anyone from preventing someone else from desecrating the flag of the United States of America, so explain to me why we need to desecrate the Constitution of the United States of America to provide such a means.
