I think it should be a crime, and if you are found guilty of burning a flag, you should be deported, even if you are a citizen (although I know we can't really do that).
It's just how I feel. I gave 4 years of my life to this country during the Nam era. The least others can do is not burn the dang flag.
I’m sure you hated the stars and bars at the insurrection on January 6

I wondered if anyone was going to tell ballgargle.
His ignorance amuses me. Classic redditard.
He will break. They all do. Sometimes they try to run over cops and get shot in the face.

RE: ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
Education is urgently needed on how to interact with law enforcement. I think it should be included in civics classes.
It involves - in part - obeying law enforcement personnel instructions and not taking any action endangering them. Law enforcement, however, should also be held accountable and reports from citizens about their mis-conduct should be taken seriously and investigated.

Balls,
Leftists like you don't think right wingers should have a first amendment right, let alone a second amendment right.
I've come to the conclusion he is simply trolling for reactions with no interest in debate. No one can be that stupid and operate a computer.
I’ve yet to see any maga here try to engage in serious debate, hopefully one happens soon. Usually that take some stupid position, resize how weak it is and then build some strawmen about communists or transgenders and then abandon their original position
I've yet to see you do anything other than gaslight and regurgitate leftist talking poinst. You are the very thing you accuse others of being.
And that's why it's not worth debating shallow dorks like him anymore. All "style", no substance.

What was it some guy said...
If a cop tells me to put one hand in. Then tells me to take my hand out. Then says shake it all about.. I'll do the damn hokey pokey and turn myself around.
Again, this type of thinking happened before Trump.. You want to blame this death on someone, his name is Barrack Obama and his disrespect towards law enforcement has taught a bunch of mouth breathers they can be complete idiots.

RE: ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
Here Ball.. Let me learn you something since you are ignorant.
That flag is not the "stars and bars". That flag is called the Naval Jack. It was used by the Confederate Navy first.
The first flag of the Confederacy is called the Stars and Bars and it looks something like this:
Looks alot like the original colony flag of the US.
Now run along. Adults are talking and having independent thoughts, not being spoonfed propaganda like you are.

Anyone notice how the libs threw a fit to get Georgia to adopt a new state flag without the “confederate” flag and they changed to basically the stars and bars pictured here and added “In God We Trust”? Dumbasses didn’t even realize it

I don't think this woman had any intention of hitting one of the officers. That video shows a backup and cutting the wheels to drive down the road.
That being said, we are watching slowed down videos over and over analyzing it. The officers had to make split seconds decisions and I'm always going to side with an officer that shoots a driver that is accelerating at them. They didn't know if she was trying to kill them or trying to flee in the moment and made the choice that ends with them going home at night
Your first paragraph is inaccurate
She had her wheels in line with the car, hit the gas, spun her front wheel drive POS on the ice, officer had hand on front of car, drew his weapon, she THEN started to turn her car then gunned it...
Those are facts and easily seen.

RE: ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
So Balls, you don't even know what the Stars and Bars is...
Quote:Confederate Flags
at Confederate Memorial State Historic Site
The First National Flag -- Stars and Bars
May 4, 1861 - May 1, 1863
![[Image: 1stnatlflag_1.gif?itok=nMPR7uiK]](https://mostateparks.com/sites/g/files/zuston361/files/styles/landscape_med_scale_fit/public/media/image/2024/11/1stnatlflag_1.gif?itok=nMPR7uiK)
Stars and Bars flag with three horizontal stripes (red, white, red) and a blue square in upper left with 11 white stars circling a white star in the middle
The Confederate States of America solicited designs for a national flag early in 1861. Hundreds of designs were submitted and on May 4, 1861, the First National Flag was adopted (there would eventually be two others). Nicknamed the “Stars & Bars,” it originally had seven stars for the first seven states to secede. It would eventually have 13 stars, representing all the states in the Confederacy.
The Second National Flag -- Stainless Banner
May 1, 1863 - March 4, 1865
![[Image: 2ndnatlflag_1.gif?itok=rB9Maq9Y]](https://mostateparks.com/sites/g/files/zuston361/files/styles/landscape_med_scale_fit/public/media/image/2024/11/2ndnatlflag_1.gif?itok=rB9Maq9Y)
White flag with red square in upper left with a blue X with 13 white stars in it
In the spring of 1862, the Confederacy solicited proposals for a new flag. Many felt the First National Flag was too similar to the United States flag. The Confederate Congress adopted the Second National Flag on May 1, 1863. The flag combined a canton of a blue saltire emblazoned with stars (a popular design proposed for the national flag and used in battle by many regiments) and a pure white field to symbolize the purity of the cause the Confederacy felt it represented.
The Third National Flag -- Revised Stainless Banner
Adopted March 4, 1865
![[Image: 3rdnatlflag_0.gif?itok=yy4OFC33]](https://mostateparks.com/sites/g/files/zuston361/files/styles/landscape_med_scale_fit/public/media/image/2024/11/3rdnatlflag_0.gif?itok=yy4OFC33)
White flag with red vertical strip on right side and red square in upper left with a blue X with 13 white stars in it
By late 1864, complaints of the Second National Flag looking too much like a flag of truce drove the Confederacy to consider a revision. On March 4, 1865, a red stripe was added to the outer half of the field. This was the third and last national flag of the Confederate States of America.
Battle Flag
![[Image: battleflag.jpg?itok=j4YccoKc]](https://mostateparks.com/sites/g/files/zuston361/files/styles/landscape_med_scale_fit/public/media/image/2024/11/battleflag.jpg?itok=j4YccoKc)
Red square flag with a blue X with 13 white stars in it
Military units commonly carried distinct flags for identification on the battlefield. They were used as signals, markers and inspiration for troops. Confederate regiments used a variety of battle flags. The Army of Northern Virginia and several other regiments chose the blue saltire on a red field emblazoned with white stars. It was also adopted as a symbol of the Confederacy by veteran groups in post-wartime.

Dang it, you beat me to it! And the reason they dropped the Stars and Bars is exactly b/c, as you noted, it resembled the original US flag.

I don't think this woman had any intention of hitting one of the officers. That video shows a backup and cutting the wheels to drive down the road.
That being said, we are watching slowed down videos over and over analyzing it. The officers had to make split seconds decisions and I'm always going to side with an officer that shoots a driver that is accelerating at them. They didn't know if she was trying to kill them or trying to flee in the moment and made the choice that ends with them going home at night
Your first paragraph is inaccurate
She had her wheels in line with the car, hit the gas, spun her front wheel drive POS on the ice, officer had hand on front of car, drew his weapon, she THEN started to turn her car then gunned it...
Those are facts and easily seen.

I cant speak to her intent only her actions. I know she intentionally was blocking traffic and intentionally pressed the accelerator with the guy in front of her. I know she intentionally caused the result that will never allow her to voice her true intent

Unfortunately, not everyone is responsible like our parents. Many Dem parents apparently are silent or advocate resistance. Teaching proper protocol in school helps create a compact of behavior.
