Flag Burning is ok by Jim Webb
This is an easy issue. You either support flag burning or you don't. There is no middle ground on this issue. Jim Webb thinks burning our flag is ok. That is a great talking point for us here in SWVA. I plan on visiting the local VFW's with that info, you should also. When someone mentions Jim Webb to me I will gladly offer up his support of flag burning. I remember in 1976 being glued to a tv watching the Chicago Cub's play the LA Dodgers. Does anyone else remember that game? Lunatics jump onto the field with lighter fluid and a flag. Before they can ignite Old Glory Cub's outfielder Rick Monday swoops in and grabs the flag! Jim Webb would have knocked Monday down protecting the flag burners so called freedom of speech. You can hear Rick Monday's account of this here. This week in the Senate Sen Allen will be fighting for legislation to once again make flag burning illegal.
Allen Supports Flag Protection Amendment
ARLINGTON, VA - Declaring that "the American flag transcends our political differences and unites us as Americans," Virginia U.S. Senator George Allen today reaffirmed his longtime support of the Flag Protection Amendment which will be considered by the Senate this week......The Senate begins debate today and is expected to vote this week on the Flag Protection Amendment which would amend the constitution to authorize Congress to prohibit the physical desecration of the flag of the United States. Senator Allen is a cosponsor of the amendment.
