MODERATORS
I doubt it. There isn't a politician in the country that candons flag burning and defacing public property.
Why do you guys keep assuming it's some generic nothingburger rather than looking up the actual complaints?
Lots of people died under that flag, friend. You can call it a nothingberger but that hardly makes it so for a majority of the US
What? You don't seem to even understand the issue. You refuse to look up the actual criticisms of Shapiro, assuming it's an issue about flag burning, which you say no one would object to. It's not about flag burning.
I don’t rightly care. You're the the one who seems kerpluxed. No politican is going to go along with the demonstrations. Actually, the US has shown restraint compared to the Europeans. A place like Philadelphia or Boston does not take bullshit demonstrations and that's before the cops show up. I am happy that you have found a social cause to support. Shapiro is not going to be the nominee, so again, I really don't care at this point.
I don't want you to care, I want you to fucking learn something before shooting your mouth off.
But this response is way worse than the ignorance above. How ready you are to cheer the boot. Scratch a centrist and a fascist bleeds.
Whatever you say little agent of chaos.
If people are dying under the flag then we should destroy the flag to prevent others from dying under it.
