Oh, you can have private property....The Flag is the exception....whether they like it or not

Ah, I see. Limiting private property rights. Even if I own it I don't really own it. All because a group of people that want to protect a piece of cloth as it makes them 'feel' good say so. Excellent conservative values you have there....

Even if it makes them feel good??? It's a duty first and foremost....the good feeling is when your on top of the perp as you evol him into a new species of pavement.

Apparently the common argument is that you personally do not own any individual flag, even if you travel to a store and exchange money for the posession of one. The argument is that the flag belongs to "the people". Such a system seems socialistic to me.
