Is the U.S. flag a symbol of hate speech? That's what documentary filmmaker Ami Horowitz wanted to find out when he went to UC Irvine, where the student government tried to ban displays of the flag in a main thruway. Watch and be amazed as Ami interviews the student who spearheaded the flag ban.

When it has gotten to this level of hate and ignorance I'm left wondering what can be done with these haters in a humane way but also prevents them from infecting others with their hate.

How did we win World War II?

Well, the flag does stand for liberty and truth, and TRUTH is the new HATE SPEECH...

[Telepathic Intruder]

The Left’s favorite way to shut down free speech: just call it hate.

[I want the USA back]

By saying that it’s a symbol of hate they mean to say that the USA is racist/sexist/homophobe/jihadiphobe. Which they actually believe.

The commies are admitting that none of this is about social justice or whatever, they just hate America.

If you had predicted this in a novel or movie or TV show 30 years ago — maybe even 20 years ago — people would have scoffed at you.

The meaning of the United States Flag has a deep, heart felt, reminder of what it means:

My comment on another thread

: " I was in, a course on the history of racial and sexual violence in the United States,” Zachary R. Wood, a junior at Williams College said

Does Williams College offer any courses which focus on some aspect of US History that a majority of US Citizens might be proud of?

Yup. It sure is a hate symbol up here in New England except for New Hampshire. Even then its under attack.

America needs a Pinochet

How did we win World War II?

The country was two generations removed from the POS snowflakes that infest the country today. The bigger question is why did decent people allow evil, libtard scum to destroy nearly every aspect of our culture, pervert our traditions, history, and societal norms, and infiltrate and destroy every branch of government.

There will be a time in the very near future when this student will lose all protections provided by the constitution over which this flag fly. The American people have proven to be peaceable to a fault only to be maligned and disrespected. These foreign born illegals will experience what it feels like to be truly oppressed, hunted and eliminated with extreme prejudice. My wish is that I were young enough to see the death of the hyphenated american

Time to root out all the university anarchists, communists and what ever else you want to label them. This entire country has gone to hell thanks to their contribution and brain washing efforts. I am ready for that civil war any time.

Stop funding these people
The kid is not an American
He hates America and he admits he is using the money American’s generously are giving him with the sole goal of overthrowing our system
Why are we paying for his education ?

Kick these ingrates back across the border
