What is this in response to?
Trump gave a speech at Fort Bragg (renamed back to Bragg after a WWII paratrooper with the same last name as the original namesake, a confederate general). He complained about people flying flags for other countries. He also said that we have contempt for the flag, that anyone who burns one should go to jail for a year
Meanwhile flag code says that a flag which touches the ground should be burned and they proudly fly confederate and nazi flags
Flag code aside, people who deify the American flag over the rights and welfare of human beings should spend a year in jail.
Flags are just things. Burn ‘em, wave ‘em, tattoo them on your buttcheek. I don’t care. It’s not more important than the human beings being treated like garbage.
