Yes I did see your original post and I disagree with your thoughts. People express themselves differently and if you are opposed to flags and symbols then I can accept and even understand that. I am not much of a flag waver myself believing it is more important to understand what the flag or symbol represent rather than just blind following. Having said that I respect the right of others to public show their support as all nations do via symbols or flags. I don't see what there is to get so up tight about. People burning flags I see as an attempt to insult all that the flag stands for...this choice of action will generally bring a stronger reaction...on that point we agree. I thought what Yak was doing was showing respect not trying to get in anyones face...maybe you saw it differently. We can all dish out insults..some people like Perrenial and a few others appear to thrive on it. I am not sure whether it is because they see only one perspective or attempt to denigrate others for personal kicks. I am thinking the former in most cases.
But hey...we can't all be perfect...but if you give it...you gotta expect it back.
