He's right, you know?
One is a representation of a political entity. The other is a representation of a minority group. So yes. One's free speech and one's hate speech.
It's not hard, faggot.
no it’s not but the comic doesn’t even work.
It's literally an object. It's not that hard, breeder.
Yes, sneakers work just as well as dress shoes when stomping out flaming messes.
Oh, I get it! the LGBT is a political entity, so they get special rights. Americans are a minority in the world, so they can get stomped on. Thanks for clearing that up.
The burning of the American flag is a subject that often comes up in case law, hence why it is more well-known and well-established that it is legal to burn the U.S. flag. It is not indicative of hate, therefore, BECAUSE the act of burning the flag is actually symbolic as you are exercising a right that the flag represents.
Most people, therefore, can appreciate the destruction of an American flag.
However. You cannot so easily represent that right, nor exercise it by burning a gay pride flag. Since the very symbol of our government can be burned, it is not indicative of an exercise of rights to burn a pride flag, though it is still within those rights.
So no. He’s not right. He has re-framed the legal matter as one of popular opinion, which is quite problematic.
