“The way I was raised was the reason I couldn’t drive by and watch that go on,” he said. “There’s liberty, and then there’s ridiculous.”

Actually, there’s liberty and then there are ridiculous, seditious, ignorant idiots.

Thank you, Corona #34, for mentioning Rick Monday, the baseball player who would not allow some hippies to light on fire the American Flag on the baseball field. I really appreciate you bringing that up–what a great moment and demonstration of true patriotism by Monday. I can’t figure out how to link the YouTube Video, but you can go there and see it! Thanks again Corona (good on ya).

The recent Supreme Court review on the 2nd amendment and some of the history behind it got me to thinking about the illegal alien marches coming up. In the 1st amendment it says “…or the right of the people peaceably to assemble…”. Common definitions indicate “people” are the people of the United States. With that in mind, illegal aliens surely do not have a right to assemble guaranteed to them by the Constitution SINCE IT DOES NOT APPLY TO THEM.

“There’s liberty and then there’s ridiculous” Modisette-military

“Don’t get stuck on stupid” Lt.Gen.Honore-military

Both statements have a poetic beat. Both show great intelligence and perception.

Wait- didn’t a Democrat candidate recently state that those who enter the military have low IQ s or lack of education?
Another Democrat proven to be incorrect.

As a Marine he’s sworn an oath to protect that flag against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. I say he was just fulfilling a federal duty.
We’ve reached a point where seditious acts are protected speech while proud acts of a nation preserving itself are arrestable offenses.

I'm not the first to come up with the idea of burning the Mexican flag and I'm sure I won't be the last. Thanks for your posts, Firstskirt and Brian72.

In May when they have the illegal alien march, I’ll be protesting by burning the Mexican Flag in front of them. Sure, I’ll be arrested (and probablly beaten) but ITS MY COUNTRY AND MY FREE Speech!!

That is very interesting. Keep us posted about that, in particular whether the ACLU comes leaping to defend your free speech rights pro-bono.

What are the odds that YOU will be sued for anti-hispanic hate speech, not protected, and Geraldo will spit on you on TV.

John #30: This frightens me too! However, I’m a retiree now and I would not hesitate to go kick some a–hat butt if I had seen this. This young man acted emotionally because he loves being a Marine and he loves our country. I’m thankful so many stepped up to help him if needed. If they have an illegal alien march here, I will also take pleasure in protesting their protest. Take heart, John, there are more of us than there are of them!

This frightens me. The laws are on the side of the unpatriotic loser and against the upstanding pround American defending his Nations flag?

Modisette, an aviation mechanic student at Gordon Cooper Technology Center in Shawnee, said support has been overwhelming, but the Marine reservist declined offers of financial assistance.

“The way I was raised was the reason I couldn’t drive by and watch that go on,” he said. “There’s liberty, and then there’s ridiculous.”

They don’t put their country first for the money. It is something they do out of love for their country.

Yeah, I think there are to many people who have forgotten their manners and how to respect one another. Perhaps the WBC folks weren’t spanked as children… whatever the case they are lowlifes and I am so glad that this young Marine isn’t being charged for standing up for what he believes in.

We support you!
