September 20, 201214 yr Author Would burning the flag be unpatriotic? The American version or the Obama version?
September 21, 201214 yr Just a question...Would someone burning the Obama flag be thought of as a racist? It's not a real flag. Who cares who burns it? And no, they wouldn't be racist. They'd be republicans.
September 21, 201214 yr So, how has the last 4 worked out? Just sayin... My last four years have been awesome and I'll make more money this year than I ever had in my life which keeps my streak of the last four years of financial prosperity intact. I'm doing excellent. And before you try to say the country isn't doing better to back and read what I said and read what you bolded and my concern with Romney is how will his attempts to fix the USA going to affect me and my money. If I make less next year, I'm blaming him. Period.
September 21, 201214 yr I don't think anyone on here would think that it would be racist...a better question would be would it be perceived outside of the BGP world as racist by the Media or left wing talking heads. Depends on who they catch burning it.
September 21, 201214 yr I have no problem with an American flag shirt. If it has the ghosts busters circle around it I would take issue. What if it gets a hole in it? Of if it gets burnt or stained accidentally?
September 21, 201214 yr Would burning the flag be unpatriotic? Not a chance. Not even a crime. That'd be like me burning a Romney poster. Big deal.
September 21, 201214 yr Author What if it gets a hole in it? Of if it gets burnt or stained accidentally? To me it's a shirt with a picture of the flag on it, the shirt is not the flag. That's just my way of looking at it.
September 21, 201214 yr To me it's a shirt with a picture of the flag on it, the shirt is not the flag. That's just my way of looking at it. But this is not a flag. This is just like a shirt to me.
September 21, 201214 yr Author But this is not a flag. This is just like a shirt to me. It's changing the American Flag or depicting it in a different manner. I just find it alarming that a presidential canidate would place his "logo" on the flag. I think it tells you alot about this president. If it doesn't bother you I respect that.
September 21, 201214 yr It's changing the American Flag or depicting it in a different manner. I just find it alarming that a presidential canidate would place his "logo" on the flag. I think it tells you alot about this president. If it doesn't bother you I respect that. And to be perfectly clear it wouldn't bother me if Romney had done the same. It's not the American flag to me. The American flag has 13 stripes and 50 stars. There is only 1 version of it and the Obama flag just shares a similar design to it but it is not the American flag or any kind of representation of it by any stretch of my imagination.
September 21, 201214 yr These are flags that represent countries that are similar to the American flag. Any beef with them? Similar flags to the American Flag « What on EARTH is that flag?
September 21, 201214 yr Author And to be perfectly clear it wouldn't bother me if Romney had done the same. It's not the American flag to me. The American flag has 13 stripes and 50 stars. There is only 1 version of it and the Obama flag just shares a similar design to it but it is not the American flag or any kind of representation of it by any stretch of my imagination. And it would bother me if Romney did it. I'm not sure how it takes a stretch of the imagination to see the American flag in Obama version.
