    ps: I was just watching the feeds, I have to admit I did see one flag being waved out there, maybe they sent out a memo so there was one

    Awww, cute. But not exactly RNC related. Just as an incentive to stay on topic, Glen, here is one of the leading US conservative news outlets: Note to Donald Trump: You’re on Fire, Stupid.

    Because attributing a few left wing radical outliers to the DNC is like attributing a few (well, more than a few, but let us be generous) shitkickers to the US army for Abu Ghraib. Or the GOP's Benghazi.

    And that would be "unfair". Like this image:

    I mean, seriously, that is just unfair. Or is it not?

    How exactly did you determine his partisan affiliation?

    May be he was just a strict libertarian or constitutionalist in the mold of justice Scalia who determined that flag burning is just as vital as the right to bear arms.

    Because the cops arrested him right then and there and he alerted the media he was going to do it

    He has done it before but did not set himself and others on fire, this is the same guy

    Facts and case summary for Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989). Flag burning constitutes symbolic speech that is protected by the First Amendment.

    I take it you mean the Main Stream Media, commonly referred to as the MSM? Caw canny, Glen, they cannot be trusted. At all.

    Interesting, I did not know that being arrested or that alerting 'the media' about upcoming flag burning is equivalent to being democrat.

    I'm starting to think that the way you keep talking about everything else except the question I asked may mean that you didn't make your assertion that the guy is democrat based on evidence you have, but may be you just made it up.

    I think that serves a larger point you are trying to make, though - democrats are USA hating flag burners. Which is a logic that should give you pause about your team because there is an interesting republican running for the US senate in Louisiana who supports your chosen presidential candidate "David Duke - former KKK leader".

    I just can't believe folks on the right here are making an issue of there being no flag or flags prominent at the DNC. I mean you just gotta keep searching for something.

    Why aren't we talking about how il Duce is gonna fulfill all his promises.

    Just another example of why this country is in the shape it's in.

    .

    Same reason you are not discussing the fact that Hillary needs 100 days to implement her great plans when she could have just told them to Obama while they were on Air Force One and we could start tomorrow instead of 9+ months from now


    Hmmmmmmmm

    @Robin - despite your qualifications, it seems you are just too stubborn to stay out of debates you don't belong in. Whilst I admit that the issue of the US Presidency has an impact on world politics we have enough pressing issues to worry about in Europe - and Glen was quite right in pointing you in the direction that Angela Mekel has forced upon us by opening the floodgates of economic immigration.

    I really don't see what right you seem to think you have to lecture other nations when your own is far from blameless in creating the shitstorm currently being experienced by the likes of innocent people in your own country and France etc.

    Maybe when you have an answer to that particular problem, you will revisit this thread with a better informed opinion.
    My service is good, fast and cheap. Select any two and discount the third.

    False equivalent and not even that or germane to my comment.

    Clinton has said how she will do what she promises. What do we know about how il Duce is gonna fullfill his?
