I have the proper response to burning flags.

Whatever Mr. Violence.

In large part Republican voters want to lower taxes because they want to "starve the beast" to use their vernacular.

That is fine, but if you want the beast to know that you are angry with it then it would be best to let it know that you mean business. Burn its symbol -- the red, white and blue as codified at 4 USC 1. That's one of the many pages of laws you hate anyways.

Until that happens the beast won't get the message that it is too big. Instead it will think that all is well in Republican land so long as the American flag is flying in Washington DC.

Doesn't it seem more natural that a person that believes in a small federal government would put his state flag in higher priority than the federal government flag?
