When you see your flag burned in these hysterical demonstrations

Aww, thanks honey. I know i can always count on you my dear friend :D. I do wonder though if you not feeling a thing when you see Stars & Stripes burned, is confirming what i say: that it have been seen so many times before. You know, you sort of getting imune to it?

Ha ha you so got a point there, is there a country that has burned the American Flag in the streets at some time or nother? Heck growing up I just assumed they didn't have firewood over there, LOL.

Probably they dont honey, and rubble and dessert sand dont burn that well. :)

Haha. Well, each have our own pleassures. But you do not answer my question :)

I hear ya on this one Linda. Burning flags is not only an insult, but also an expression of a deep deep hatred. It sure makes me nervous too about what these people mig be capable of doing and make me worried for what will hppen to my daughter when i am no longer here.

Of course you don't kim, I agree entirely mate. He was extremely good for our nation, and I doubt we will have anyone like him for a while. You can tell he was admired by both sides of the house of commons, and both sides' leaders try to emulate themselves in his persona. But in the same way, Hitler was very good for Germany too. I'm not drawing similarities between the two men and although I'm fairly nationalist, I would never support a war that would kill so many innocent people. So the war for me, was Blairs elephant in the living room we just can't ignore. Thanks a lot for the best response rating mate. And thank you for these decent discussions you keep churning out! :D

You are quiet welcome pal, you earned it. Yes, the wars in afghanistan and specifically in Iraq was Tony's one big mistake. I like you could never support a war where soldiers go out fighting and loosing their lifes figthing for someone elses business and interests. Not to mention the civilian cost of any war or military conflict.

Once again we are on the same wavelenght 4ft and this time i simply had 2 give you the best response rating. I didn't realise that the reason i feel hurt when i see my flag burned is actually because i site with those people doing this. Funny enogh it did not hurt me the slightest when at the same time they were burning pictures of our minister of state, maybe due to the fact that he is just a bush muppet too. I got to say though i liked Tony Blair. I was lucky enough to Live in the UK for most of his 10 years in power and have seen all the good he has done to your country. Though he was a bush muppet too he did take his time to concentrate on the homefront too. After 18 years of conservative tyrany he was just what the english needed. Hope i do not offend you by saying this my dear friend.

Hi, Kitty. I am so sorry to hear that your brothers came back home wrapped in flags. I hope the extremists will do no more things bad to people and think more of the things they do beforehand. We need a peaceful world to live in. Hello, Kim. Glad to hear from you again. Have a nice day.

I agree I find the burning of the flag to be an insult, it doesn't matter what country its from! I think the extremist realise that most people associate their flag with their countrys pride. I know my heart broke when I saw my brothers casket come off a plane wrapped in an American flag!

Yes it sure is an insult Will and i think that is exactly the reason why they do this. I might not be proud of my country, but i am proud of my nationality and my flag symbolize that nationality.

There sure is a lot of psycologic affect in this, when you take that point of view Dran. And unfornunately also a lot of truth.

Well i partly agree with you my fellow dane. I think you are a bit harsh in saying they dont have lives if they have time to go out burning flags. The demonstration in itself does not confirm this statement. Its no worse that when we went out in the 70's & 80's demonstrationg against new clear power, european union, may 1st etc. But its the way they demonstrate that really pisses me of. Im not much of a nationalist i must say, other than when it comes to my flag, my national soccer team or when we danes tell the frogs and fritz in the european union to go fck themselves. I do not know how long you have been away from Denmark, but i tell you this: I have lived in England for 10 years and returned to Denmark about 18 month ago. I have never been more proud of my nationality than in those 10 years. But on returning home i find there aint really much to be proud about. Still the burning of Danebrog hurt me to the core. Guess its similar to nobody else but me can say that my mother is a bicth. :D Welcome to my friend list. Greetings.

Weel thats what i mean. I see the burning the flags as part of the hatered, they sure dont do this as a friendly gesture to us. You are right it sure is one thing that concerns me too for the future of my daughter. You simply just dont know how far these fanatics are willing to go.
