Pro War rally desecrates American Flag

[zeemike]

I was just sitting here watching the pitiful pro war rally on C-Span and am alarmed that the pro war people can get away with desecrating a big American flag with graffiti.
Has anyone else noticed this? And how are they allowed to get away with it and no one says a word?
I think a big deal should be made of it.

1. they are following the example of their great leader

who defaced a flag with his autograph.

BTW, the biggest thing about their rally is that poor flag....

That big flag with writing and drawing all over it is not only against the U.S. flag code it's a violation of the law in D.C.

4. Didn't mean to step on yours

It was much better with the code there to see..But it just burns my but to see them get away with it.

5. Oh, no problem.

I just wanted you to see it. I knew that what they were doing was flag desecration but I didn't know until I looked it up that there was a law against this in DC.

6. Rep. Steve King - (R)Iowa

He acted outraged when he mentioned all of the flag desecrating that he witnessed at yesterday's (anti-war) rally.

Guess he didn't recognize that big red, white and blue thing covered with graffiti blowing in the wind right behind him.

Hope Crooks and Liars gets a clip.
