Filthy Hippies


 On this date in 1976 Chicago Cubs outfielder Rick Monday foiled the plans of a couple of hippies to burn the flag. The two jerks are probably America-hating Democrats today.

White males? More likely to be Republican now than anything. That was just a boyish prank, so all’s forgiven.

"As for jurisprudence, both the father and son plead guilty to trespassing.

"The father, William Errol Thomas of Eldon, Missouri, serves three days in jail rather than pay a $60 fine.

"Meanwhile, his son becomes a guest of the local juvenile hall while waiting for dear old, demented dad to do his bit in the slammer."

Dad would be 86. Son would be 60.

Yes Republicans are known for their flag hating…

The event was nearly FIFTY years ago! People change their minds, you know. And their political beliefs and parties.

Republicans might not be flag haters, but some seem to have no problem with desecrating the U.S. capitol. And flag burning is protected speech, whether you or I like it, approve, or are offended. Many have given their lives to protect that right

I agree they have the right. I still think flag burners are pieces of anti-American shit. It’s opinion, we all have one. Around here, mine is the correct one.

My opinion is that flag burning is never well thought out and completely ineffective as a form of protest. It accomplishes nothing (other than making a lot of people very angry).

Angry at the flag burner, that is. Flag burning brings no sympathy or understanding to what someone is protesting.

..."desecrating the U.S. capitol."

Bet you still believe covid came from a bat, and ol' Joe is sharp as a tack.
