I'm just glad I'm 60 years old and hope I don't live to see the fall out from all the Stupid Stuff they are teaching the Youth of today......

Video of child ripping flag from yard and tossing it as adult looks on goes viral

A video of a child pulling an American flag from a person’s front yard and throwing it on the ground has gone viral on social media.

It's been happening for 100's of years. Just that now we have social media to share what wasn't shared in the past.

30 yers ago, if this happened there was no camera to catch it, no social media to share it and no faux outrage.

So, you'll be fine to live out the last decade or two of your life.

This hasn't been happening for 100's of years. Thinking that makes you feel better for not condoning this type of thing.

Sure it hasn't. No one has ever disrespected the flag.....ever.....it's just happened since the Democrats stole the election right......

Those pesky youths in central park in 1967. 

But yeah, Drifter's generation didn't ever desecrate the flag.



Do I agree with it?  No, I find it abhorrent, but as long as I can remember, there has always been someone or some group who has desecrated the flag. Pretending that it is a new phenomenon is just finding something to be outraged about.

The obvious difference being, to the most casual observer, is the child desecrating the flag in the video is very young and doing so with the tacit approval of the adult (likely his mother).

Young adults desecrating the flag in protest is an entirely different scenario.

The mother isn't too bright. She keeps riding without a helmet, she'll soon suffer a brain injury to match her current intelligence.

You think adults should wear a bike helmet on a casual stroll through a residential neighborhood? Lol.

You are clearly not an 80s child.

I do find it ironic that her future Hitler son is wearing one.

What did you like best about 60 years ago, Vietnam War protesters burning flags or the KKK burning crosses?   Oh, the good ole days according to Drifter.

I assume he is grateful he doesn't have to raise children in this day and age.

Of course. A third of cyclist accidents are caused by distracted drivers and when a bike and car collide, the car is rarely worse off.

This was not an era to be proud of, and our country was teetering on the brink. I do agree with the analogy between this era and 1968. But each time the locusts come to destroy the country, it gets harder to preserve it and restore it.

Why is the leftist instantly go straight for every bad thing from any era as if nothing good ever happened in the past?

I don't know why guys aren't narrowing this argument down to the title of this thread. One has to understand the nature of indoctrination before this conversation can even be had. Who cares if there's examples of kids who were indoctrinated 60 years ago? The question is to what degree, if any, we should be indoctrinating children.

The left feeds on misery. They always have.

The same reason the right goes straight for the bad thing from this era as if nothing good is currently happening.

President, Senate, House.   All I see is winning.  No misery here .... S&P 500 up 18% YTD.

Funny how you say we feed on misery when Drifter and Ronster continuously make threads that reveal their misery with this country, as if they are suicidal.

Congratulations. You cracked the code. Certain posters are going to be more extreme than others, but the base tends to be represented by ideology. Can you tell me about the ideologies that drive the bases?

All the winning and you are still miserable?

Hurricane isn't miserable. He is the message board version of Bernie Sanders. Socialist on the surface, capitalist at heart.  I don't even think he believes half the diarrhea that comes off his fingertips as much as he enjoys the reaction.
