I would be tempted to toast the guy with a shot of Bacardi 151... right as he is lighting the flag... of course, if someone bumped my elbow and it landed all over him.. well, that is just tough, ain't it?

"People who want the UN to put the US in its place are idiots as far as I am concerned."

Agreed. Anyone with at least two functioning brain cells knows that the UN is totally incapable of ... well ... anything (with the possible exception of harboring vast corruption).

I wonder if they would be willing to put their lives on the line to defend the flag (and everything it stands for) if we were under attack ?

You have to view these people for what the are, Parasites.

Californians with entirely too much money and too much time on their hands. Think, what a horrible death it is to die a coward, and Santa Cruz, Aptos and Capitola are filled with people who will never be missed.

If he tried burning the flag in my town, his nickname would soon be "Stumpy".

Just make sure that the anti-American Left gets plenty of exposure. The more Americans get their message, the faster the Left will drop into the oubliette of history where it belongs.

The only thing they have to do is burn the flag of their country for fun ?. If that is the only way they can celebrate a holiday like this is burn the flag they better take my advise , get a job , earn a living and better still get a life period!

""It seemed like a good idea to burn some flags just because we can," added fellow organizer Sha Lar, 32, of Santa Cruz."

'because we can'.....sounds like a 'Toonism.

I saw a flag the wind had tattered,
No one to care or think it mattered!
Windtorn and faded stripes were flapping,
Pale stars upon pale blue were napping
I wondered if a bugle blowing,
Would rouse our country to bestowing...
Upon our flag more true devotion,
And stir our hearts with real emotion!
Forgotten there, so bravely flying.
A symbol worn but never dying
A challenge to a nation sleeping,
A loyal sentry, Watch is keeping!

Edna R. Zunino





Happy July 4th - POTLATCH

I'm disappointed.

I wish they would have invited me.

I would have celebrated by honoring the Secvond Amendment.

Relax....

Think of Santa Cruz as the sandbox were we've confined the looniest of the loony -- including the UCSC campus..

For decades, the city has been overrun and run by the "campus community" which is comprised mostly of Leftists, Marxists, Queers, Lesbians, Transsexuals, Bisexuals, potheads, crack heads, heroin addicts, career welfare rats, social cockroaches and misc. miscreants....

Think of Santa Cruz as a no talent, no class San Francisco...
