This photo is posted for more than the obvious reason. 1. The obvious….angry protestors overseas are burning the American flag. They may as well stay overseas because if they pull that stunt in America they may just not make it back to their homeland! 2.

Now THATS an offensive flag young padwan
When it comes to kids using their imagination, and creating art, the possibilities are endless.

Is That TEA On Your American Flag?

Mexico First. American Second?
In Seattle a few years back, a protest for Immigration brought about this photo. I gotta say, if you’re fighting to stay in America, perhaps flying YOUR nations flag above the American flag isn’t a good start?

STOP….in the name of my American Flag underwear
Wooooooooooow. I ask myself every day now why it is that so many people have so much free time to do the things they do that make it into the news. this one was slightly disturbing….for all the obvious reasons.
