Why don’t they just leave? Then, they CAN be without America.

Shooting is too good for em. They should have been beaten to a bloody pulp and left to bleed out.

” three Revolutionary Communist Party activists”

It’s unusual to see the press identify them accurately.

When you see street demonstrations watch for “revcom” or “revcom.us” on the signs.

This is a almost standard RCP stunt. The purpose is to get their tiny organization publicity. They did this at the main gate of Ft Monmouth back in the Reagan administration and got themselves pretty well beat up by members of Vietnam Vets Against War. These fellows folded the scorched flag in the correct triangle and presented it to the base commander (with the correct salute as he was the ranking person). A very good bit of optics.

When are they scheduled to be on the Democrat debates?

Oooh, New World Order activists. Sometimes they make themselves obvious.

Good post.

I’m no lip-reader but it looks like she said “All this for a flag”.

Maybe I missed part of it.

Well at least naked Communists are declaring their radical anti-American politics.

And yet the media and Left say it is divisive to call them Communists and un-American.
