Benjamin Haas, communication studies graduate student, will burn an American flag tomorrow at noon on the Parade Ground as part of a peaceful protest, according to Cody Wells, Student Government president.

Wells said Haas is exercising his First Amendment right to burn the flag. The burning comes nearly a week after Isaac Eslava was taken into custody after cutting down and burning the American flag flying over the War Memorial and stealing the University flag.

___ Sadly, a student has filed a peaceful protest with the university to burn an American flag at noon tomorrow. Please join our Student Body Leaders and the LSU Student Body on the parade grounds tomorrow at 1 p.m. to say the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the National Anthem. Thanks guys.

Per David Jones, who is on the student government.

How is it legal to cause a fire in a public place?

Some LSU students have organized a counter protest:

We need a sniper to attend this flag burning. I’ll be glad to pay his travel expenses.

I’m pissed...let me just say that.....

Better he poured gasoline on himself and lit a match.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

I guess Benji’s mom didn’t give him enough attention. Loser.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

A bunch of people should show up with their trusty Queerans to burn along with them.

Seriously.

You and me, think a lot alike......grrrrrrrrr

Apparently the hippies are burning the flag in solidarity with the guy who stole and burned a flag last week:

He burned this flag the night it was announced UBL was dead. The flag burner is a self-proclaimed Communist. Hippie stoner type.

Koran burn = national press.

American flag burner = local news only.

now is the time for someone else to exercise that right and burn a Quran as well.

“Communications Studies”

That says it all.

Now, when you boys get home, you're gonna see a lot of war protesters. But don't be bitter. Go up to one, shake his hand, and smile. Then wink at his girlfriend, because she knows she's dating a pussy." - Gen. Tommy Franks

Were he closer to me, I’d whip Ben Haas’s aas. And, I am no macho guy.

I’d rather see them burn a Koran.

[Red Badger]

How about a koran burning, too.......

[mothball]

I can assure you with some of the crazy “coonasses” we have down here, someone will end up whipping this punk’s ass!

[Las Vegas Ron]

OTOH, a square, shoulder leveled punch right in the mouth would be wholly satisfying too.

Is there no law in Louisiana against inciting a riot? This is apparently what is planned.
