Flag Burning
Congress is about to go through the annual attempt to ban flag burning. They may succeed this year with the Senate as Republican as it is.
Conservatives are people who want to guard our cherished national values. That's why they want to alter the Bill of Rights for the first time ever in over 200 years, to ban the political expression of burning a symbol of those national values, thus protecting those values by clobbering them.
Yay.
That's why, by the same reasoning, to protect our freedoms, we have to let the FBI secretly check on our library records.
And on and on.
But I suppose you knew these things already.
