In the beginning of the video there were folks walking away with guilty grins on their faces as if they thought it was a joke BUT didn't want to be part of it. I wonder why nobody stood up and said something? Anyway I digress.
Many, many, many, years ago the KKK was active in PA. I was at my new in-laws house and on the nightly news there was a 2 minute clip of KKK members walking across some bridge in SW PA. Well my mother and father in-law and my new wife started belly aching about how "that should not be allowed."
I explained to the gathering that what they were doing was covered under the 1A of the Bill of Rights and although I did not agree with the cause I did support them in their right to exercise ther 1A.
Well I got lambasted! My father in-law (A Union activist form the Rail Road by the way) just lit into me. Well being 20 years old and in my father in-laws house I let it go. On our way home my wife turned to me in the car and said, "At first I agreed with my Mom & Dad about not allowing the KKK marching however I thought about what you said. You were right."
Back on topic now: Well I kind of believe that too with the OWS crowd. They have a right to say what they want and if it involves burning an American flag: Well go at it.
On the other hand though, (Really fine line here) if I was there I wouldn't have stopped them but I would have been up on thouse steps demanding that they do not burn the flag.
