Flag burning incident near White House leads to arrest ho...

The arrested man identified himself as a combat veteran and said he was burning the American flag in protest of an executive order Trump signed Monday targeting flag burning.

Park Police said they arrested the man for violating a statute that prohibits lighting a fire in a public park.

That's how they're going to do it

You don't seem to understand that 90% of the people you are arguing with in here also don't like the idiot stuff on the left either.

BUT, they defend it.

Just wanna throw this out there....is there any chance that Trump does these things, not because people like me react to it, but because people like you voted for and support it?

I'm years past trying to figure out the MAGA mindset, but it's kinda flying over your head that in a "Politics 101" sense, perhaps a politician is doing something because the people who support him aren't gonna stop supporting him over it. Any chance you're overcomplicating this? Just a percent or two?

nope.

No they actually don't. A few will for some items yes but not generally. For example, just like Gannan I don't remember anyone supporting the Govt taking people's guns. Maybe Hunt 🙂

and, you guys support those candidates and vote for them. Same thing. Not everyone agrees with everything Trump does just cause they voted for him. Doesnt stop you guys from going loony about it.

When you find yourself thinking HE has intelligent insights on a topic, you just might be off the deep end. Just sayin.

"When you guys arent so crazy, the rest of the country wont take as much joy in seeing you get trolled. Then, the MAGA movement will finally end. Its up to you guys. What goes around comes around."

He's spot on. Trump is what he is in part because people on the left/TDS folks go off the deep end and give up the high ground. He triggers and trolls and you all fall for it every time. Take the flag thing. I went to bed last night thinking it's wrong, and I still do, but instead of letting it play out in court where even Scalia said it's a right people are rushing out the door to burn flags and acting like lunatics that pushes people back towards him. So HE is spot on.

Now you're moving from issues to candidates. Most of the people in here were either past Republicans or Independents that voted against Trump and not for the Dems. Do you think Vikas or ToastJ support the issues on the left? Again, most of the posters you are currently arguing with in here are in that category. There are a few true lefties but only a couple.

They have the power to end their own torture and they arent smart enough to use it.

You saying it over and over doesnt make it true.

Toast doesnt stand for anything except for telling everyone they are wrong without ever giving his own opinion.

Vikas is one of the good ones. Thats one person.

Mostly everyone in here is a complete loon.

I don’t. Far left and right are what is wrong with this country. It just so happens that the far right won the WH and both houses before the far left did.

It has already played out in court and that's the problem with this one. Trump does not care about laws, policies, regulations, traditions, etc.

It is far too late to ignore Trump and his minions. They are doing far too much damage in this term to simply try to wait it out.

Toast is a righty. Surely you know that. His views are tightly aligned to the former Republican views pre MAGA.

Moss, Darkstar, and Hunt are the lefties. I'm probably missing a couple but pretty much everyone else is old school Republican, Independent, or Libertarian and simply anti-Trump.

I won’t defend drone strikes or assassinations of any human being, but when you join al-Qaeda and become one of their leaders you are a traitor. I would have rather seen him apprehended and brought back for trial, but killing him was no different than killing an Iranian general.

You think this is the first time anyone in office pushed the limits of something that was already settled? It's cute how you are switching from let it play out in court to too much damage is done to wait....kind of like immigration, huh? Again, you all are giving up the high ground. He's wrong on this. Freaking out going unhinged only pushes people to him.

No but this is first time that anyone has pushed the limits on this scale and pace and it isn't even close.

The border is excellent and 95% of all posters in here support what has happened. Deportation tactics, not so much. Not sure why you can't seem to separate those two.

Feel free to expand and tell me who you think the real Libs are in here outside of the three I named.

Stop being so damn dramatic. He made an XO that says burning a flag as part of another crime is illegal. It's one of the most worthless XOs I've seen. Give it a few hours and one of the judges who love to overturn him will overturn it. Unhinged over nothing.

No one even campaigned on taking away people's guns...except for maybe the right's new hero Tulsi Gabbard. So once again its not really the policy, its the personality. You like her because Trump tells you to like her...even though she was a gun grabber. She was also for socialized medicine.

Because there are none. This is an NFL team message board. How many wacko far left libs join an NFL message board???

Sending the army into cities and pointing guns at citizens is not "trolling".

remember when repugs stood for less federal government involvement?
