With flag burning, I'm with TwoDogs. Or as Mike Royko (bless his soul) said, 'Some things, a right to the jaw works just fine, you don't need a law' (paraphrased from memory).

That settles it. The test is right on the money.

Well, if you can't have fun in a joke thread, where can you have fun?

I guess that makes three.

I've always said that if you want to make a statement by burning a flag, feel free.

And I've always said that if some teary eyed vet kicks your ass for it, what did you expect?

A reasonable discussion is always preferable to inflammatory remarks, or actions. If you go looking for trouble, you will find it.

Could not get past the first questions as I don't put bumper stickers on my car, hell the dealer even knew enough not to put the dealership sticker on it.

The only time the flag is to be burnt is when it is too tattered and worn to be displayed.

To tell the truth, when I took the Lib test, I had the same results as you.

Amazing how great (and weak...1st person here) minds think alike.

Nothing wrong with settling minor matters out of court.

There you go making sense again.

Then you go blow it with that asinine comment about great minds. If you see a great mind behind these posts, you are a sick puppy. Like I said, the tests are right on the mark.
