Flag Burning 11/03

[AnarchoJesse]

If you're going to do the US flag, why not go all the way and include the UN and/or the NH flags?  It might take the harsh edge off the event and actually confuse those who would automatically be very angry at you for burning the "stars and stripes" alone.

It seems like a more complete statement.  If you're interested, I'll pay for the NH flag (you order it).

I was considering the UN flag as well if I could find one as I said above, but I'll do the NH one too. It does make sense from the perspective of consistency.

I was thinking about that angry big nationalist outside the post office - was that a tax protest?  I thought it was peace.  Or were you referring to someone else?

[Kat Kanning]

It was the Don Quixote thing, which was a tax/torture protest.

Cameras are for your protection and others enjoy footage!

for the most views, at the end of the work day is the busiest downtown right?

[Sam A. Robrin]

Have a good con-flag-ration!

[Caleb]

I think this is a wonderful idea! You have my full support, and I will certainly purchase your flag! Matter of fact, in Dada-speak there is an 80% chance that I will join you by burning one here in Riverside on election day.

The human subconscious thinks in symbols. By attacking the symbols of nationalism I believe we do real damage to nationalism.

Have you thought of doing this as a pledgebank thing and see how many people you can get to join you across the country?

Why not burn some of those flag-motif party symbols that pop up everywhere each leap year? 
      Better still, burn an elephant for Barr and a donkey for McCain.  For Obama, you'll have to design a moonbat . . .

[Lloyd Danforth]

We did the elephant and donkey burn one year.  They didn't burn completely and the what originally smelled like a barbeque began to stink real bad after a few days!

Are you in Keene? I'm sure he'd be happy for you to attend and do that with him.

[Kat Kanning]

Doesn't appear to be in Keene.

[Lloyd Danforth]

Kat looks around....

Doesn't appear to be in Keene.

[Sam A. Robrin]

Doesn't appear to be in Keene.

No, I'm one hundred leagues from the hemisphere . . .

What is the goal of this burn?  Do any of you think that this may make enemies of those who could be potential converts?  They may reject you and your ideas and all FSPers without discovering the rationale.

I think that man otherwise rational people have a latent sense of nationalism that may flair up in an event like this.

Think this over.
