This is my first official blog. I read a great many blogs each day and finally decided that instead of leaving comments all over the place I would start my own.
I saw this article at gateway pundit...check the link out below.
Gateway Pundit: Veteran Sentenced For Desecrating Mexican Flag at UNM Campus#comments
I cannot beleive that in this day and age we can sit back and allow someone to desecrate and American Flag in the name of Freedom of Speech but will prosecute someone for taking down a Mexican flag flying solo on a college campus. That act is a signal of war or that a territory has been taken over when it is not flying alongside an American flag.
This veteran did the absolutely right thing in taking that flag down and ripping it up. It had no place flying solo on American ground. The fact that the college did nothing about this is cowardly in my opinion. This veteran should not be prosecuted. And shame on whomever it was that found this man guilty and shame on the judge for sentencing him.
The saddest part of this is that if this man had done the exact same action to an American flag not only would he never had been prosecuted, it would been praised by many as a brave show of Freedom of Speech.
There is something seriously wrong with this picture.
I'm ashamed.
