This Motherfucker Has Gone Too Far.

By Chuck | May 29, 2007

So it seems like some fuckwit or fuckwits in Orcas Island, Washington decided it would be a good idea to burn the flags that were placed on the graves of veterans for Memorial Day and replace them with flags of their own design.
Flags bearing swastikas.
Members of the American Legion replaced the flags but the fuckstick(s) returned to repeat the stunt on Memorial Day.

Seriously, what the fuck is this shit?
You want to burn a flag in protest, go for it. As far as I’m concerned it is well within your right to do so. Taking the flags off of the grave of a veteran is something completely different. Sure you might not like this war, or any wars for that matter, but how in the hell is this helping your cause? Unless your cause is just to be an asshole. Shit like this just puts you in the same group as Fred Phelps and his gaggle of douchenozzles.

I spent a (very) short time in the army and I never saw any action so when I’m gone don’t put a flag on my grave for Memorial Day because I don’t deserve it. I have friends that, if they go before me, I will be there to put a flag on their graves. Some of these friends disagree with the current war but that is not what the flag is for. It is to remember the person and what they did, not to glorify the war they fought in.

    I’ve always loved the American flag. To me the flag has always represented our country. It represents the ideals our country is supposed to be about. Not our government.

    Most of those Vets died for those ideals. They don’t fight for President Bush.

    It makes me sad when people degrade the flag in protest. Although, as Chuck said, they should have the right to do so if they chose. But it’s even worse to use people, especially those that gave up their lives fighting in a war they may or may not agreed with. These men and women don’t fight for politics. They fight for us. This sounds naive. But that’s how I feel about it.
