Re: HGTV: Use an American flag as a tablecloth!

You listen to it, it's not just the flag he is stomping on. About what I would expect from someone that was happy to go to prison to get his "head straight and get new material."

Just because a symbol has a certain meaning to you and other people you associate with, doesn't mean all other people should have to think the same way. The kind of people who would take violent action against someone for not following the flag code concern me more than the actual person burning the flag. Not tolerating people with different ideas, beliefs, and ways of expression goes against the freedoms the flag stands for.
I would not kill over it, my feelings about that person would be about the same for someone that commits rape, spousal abuse, or someone that thinks the U.S. owes them everything they want. Yes, it would be a very low opinion of the person.

Re: HGTV: Use an American flag as a tablecloth!

Would a picture of the president using a napkin, that was a replica of our Decloration of Independence or U.S. Constitution, to wipe his mouth with be appropriate? Would it be ok to use the same as a doormat or rug?
