dont you DARE be offended over people burning flags when you don’t have the audacity to be offended over innocent lives being lost
The United States Flag Code (4 USC Sec 8 Para (k) Amended 7 July 1976) states: “The Flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem of display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.”
We literally have the right o give a viking funeral to the flag when it gets too worn.
Also, we have the right to burn the flag when we feel the system lwts bad shit happen. Like murderers getting away and media trying to show only one side or censor the entire thing completely until people forget, to be topical.
Nobody will forget though. This country, this world is fallen to shit and people aren’t taking it anymore. It’s not just america. Countries around the world are getting prepared for a revolution because times change. Governments don’t. And when government gets outdated and no longer works, it needs to be replaced.
why does this post, that shows the OPPOSITE of what so MANY here scream and shout, have so little notes compared to all the other posts related this topic?
Because many people like to generalize and hate an entire group for the actions of a few people and that only makes things worse. Cops are not the problem, people who abuse their power are. White people are not the problem, racists are.
PLEASE PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST THIS, THE MAINSTREAM WILL NOT COVER IT TUMBLR AND TWITTER ARE OUR ONLY FORMS OF SPREADING THIS NEWS
WE WERE PROTESTING AND CHANTING CALMLY AND RAN INTO THE POLICE
WE ARE A PEACEFUL PROTEST SO WE ARE TURNING AROUND
THE PROTESTOR IN THE FRONT SAYS “WE’RE LEAVING” AND “LET’S LEAVE”
THE POLICE PUSH US AS WE ARE LEAVING AND PUSH DOWN THE BARRICADE AND START COMING AT US WITH BATONS
WE WERE LESS THAN 50 UNARMED TEENAGERS PEACEFULLY PROTESTING AND 200 COPS CAME SWINGING WITH BATONS. OUR ONLY WEAPONS WERE OUR VOICES AND CARDBOARD SIGNS YET THEY STILL ATTACKED BECAUSE OUR TRUTH THREATENED AND SCARED THE POLICE THAT MUCH.
THIS IS THE AMERICA WE LIVE IN. I DIDN’T WANT TO BELIEVE IT BUT IT’S TRUE.
Justice for Mike Brown. So far most of the powerful evidence I’ve seen. Please add any if you have something different & feel free to take credit for something’s. I was so heated in the time that I made this I didn’t think about it. Also sorry for misspelled words, I stayed up all night to make it.
