"In 1776, or in 1789, do you think our Founding Fathers would have opposed flag burning? I think not!"
You'd better read your history books.
Those that SPOKE against the colonies were branded for TREASON. In those days people were more respectful and valued their country more than most people today. It's sad to see all these immature excuses for flag burning.
I was an American History major and I have no clue what you are talking about. Are you talking about people who spoke of overthrowing the government forcibly? That is a far cry from speaking out against a government's actions or burning a flag.
