Keep warm: throw another koran on the fire

Over the years, I've watched with horror several campaigns to get such an amendment. I can hardly think of a more horrific change to the Constitution, as it constitutes a partial repealing of the first amendment. If people were hauled off to jail merely for expressing a political viewpoint, this wouldn't be the United States any more - not the one the Founders created.

Why do you hate America?

It was a joke, Brandon . . .

You're giving yourself much more credit than you have coming, probably the only basis on which you can contend with me on anything connected with debate. Your post was obviously a sarcastic attempt to reverse our usual positions, which is why my first sentence about "playing along" was there.

However, even to make such a joke implies that you may think that my position is somehow self-contradictory, which it is not. Had you continued that line of reasoning, you would have simply lost.

I find that the expensive, camel hair korans are extremely effective at removing even the last bit of klingon. They do, however, have a tendency to clog the toilet.

This post was much funnier when you still had "learn to spell genius" as the tag line.

Isn't that his First Amendment right?

Given that logic, I guess it his right to burn flags if he wants to.

Are you attempting to make any point at all about the actual topic? You know, something related to flag burning, criticism vs patriotism, the actual content of my post, etc?
