Thanks for sharing this.

Disgusting to see this "NYPD officer" treat the American Flag this way.  Maybe it is reinforcing the comments made here and all across America about lack of people wanting to enter the LE profession because it's just not worth it anymore.

And the result of that is they will be forced to fill the ranks with less less desirable applicants.  And it seems the officer in the video might be one of them.

Also the guy's comment on no ID required for voting and sex offenders privacies is also a joke.  It shows how bad the nation has become.  We protect the privacy of sex offenders but law abiding citizens  wishing to exercise their 2a rights to own arms has to register with a national data base.  A data base formed initially to keep track of convicted criminals.

The current nut job in the WH has the lowest approval ratings and it only gets worse every day.  How the hell he can claim he garnered the most votes in history only leads suspicion of which "no ID to vote" can be partially contributed to be one of the reasons.

With so many people disappointed with the current POTUS it makes me believe that a lot of Americans were apathetic at the last election.  And the "Ghost" voters elected him in.  And now they are regretting it.

Well if that is true I hope these yo-yo's get off their ass in 2024 and get involved.

Did she stomp on it (intent) or did she just turn around to address someone and carelessly step on it?

I'm fine with people stomping on the American flag. Better than fake patriots quick to wave flags but not understand what is represents. A real patriot is proud to live in a country where people can stomp on the flag and it means nothing. Just smile and let it go. No need to feel anger.

I don't personally care if someone steps on the flag as I am not big on symbolism but it doesn't look good for a police officer to be doing it. My comment was only to push back on the attention getting headline saying she stomped on it when isn't obvious from the video that she intentionally stepped on the flag.

What he/she/they is saying is it's okay to stomp on the US flag, because true patriots don't mind if their symbols are publicly desecrated and destroyed.

Just don't misgender him/her/they with the wrong pronouns.  That's considered assault, and you should be charged with a hate crime.

I think I got that right....   

I recognize many fake patriots that don't believe in American democracy and like to wave the flag but don't believe in what it stands for. I speak with many people that claim they believe in freedom while they try to take freedom from others.

I see many people, some on this forum, who think they know more than others about freedom, yet they've never once made a meaningful sacrifice for that freedom -- no military service, not married to a military member, never ran for office, never made a contribution to an organization that supports freedom, etc.

Hell, one person who USED to be on the forum was offered a free membership in the 2A organization of his choice.  He didn't even want to contribute someone else's money to help fight for freedom!  How stupid is that?     But, he was all about freedom and liberty!  He said so all the time, over and over, in thread after thread.

In addition, he was always arguing about his constitutional rights.  He never grasped that constitutional rights only count when the government is violating them.  If a private citizen stops you from expressing your opinions, there's no constitutional amendment about that.

I learned very early in life many people think they know all about their rights, yet none of those know one thing about their responsibilities.  People like that believe anything they want is a right, and anything they don't want is a constitutional violation. 

I hope you aren't like that.  We took a long time trying to open his eyes, but he was just smarter than the rest of us and refused to consider he might be wrong.

There are  many fake patriots that don't believe in American democracy and like to wave the flag but don't believe in what it stands for. These are people that claim they believe in freedom while they try to take freedom from others.

This statement differs from the one u made about patriots not caring if someone stomps on the symbol of our nation/freedom.

1 can be for freedom (1A and stomping on a flag is protected) and still not like the action of stomping/burning the flag.

Fake patriots? Tell us about fake patriots - you two know more about them every morning when you look into the mirror.

So you want to shoot somebody that stomps on the flag? Send them to prison for a year? I will pray for you all.

Pray for yourself, bro.  Don't worry about us.  We got it.

What church do you belong to?  Are you attending Christmas Mass tonight?

If so, take pics and post for us.

He did the same to me in the Mark meadows thread. Sounds like he looking to start a fight.

How did you get shooting somebody from that quote?

Better watch your bearing, your course is way off

Have you ever heard of reading comprehension?

How did you get from "and still not like the action of stomping/burning the flag" to "So you want to shoot somebody that stomps on the flag? Send them to prison for a year?"

Maybe instead of making up FAKE comments that nobody but you posted (shooting and prison) -- which are called straw arguments -- try ASKING what they would consider just punishment for intentionally stomping, burning or otherwise desecrating the US flag.  That way, you're arguing over what someone actually posted, and not some troll's misinterpretation of something they didn't come close to saying.

Since you're going to "pray for" us, I'd really like to know what religion you are a member of.  It would help us learn about your beliefs and where you are coming from with your comments.

At this point, I'm leaning toward the Church of Satan.  Maybe even Scientology.  Your argumentative style when engaging others here is not very Christian.

More like the church of head in ass! 

Nice how you attack anyone with views different than yours. I'm not responding further. I know you.

Wrong, he is not attacking different views, but a single view calling for violence that you brought up yourself. Violence is not good.

It is a specific view and not "views" in his post.

If by "different views" you mean "it's not okay to accuse people of making comments they never wrote," then I'll have to agree -- he has different views than you.

You can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen!
