Kill her no, but deport her is another thing all together. Get her a one way ticket to the middle east or north korea.

We aren't allowed to banish people from their own country for doing something we don't like (she's a white woman named Emily Lance who is making a statement about her freedom of expression, unless I missed it, I am pretty sure she's a US citizen). Sure, what she did was unsavory, unpatriotic, and disgusting. But people do unsavory, unpatriotic, and disgusting things all the time. Does that give this country the right to deport them? Isn't that a violation of freedoms our patriots fight/fought for?

She obviously dislikes America, I'm trying to help her out.

FREEDOM...but only if you agree with my believes, otherwise DEATH!

She just proved how blind and hypocritical being so patriotic can make people. She didn't hurt anybody, just don't give her the attention she craves, simple.

its not the flag that is pissing people off, its what her intentions are and what she represents... but regardless calling for her head is ridiculous

 

never mind how stupid it is for her to attack the nation that gives her the privileged life she supposed has though...

'OMG these moslemz are so triggered over us burning da koran lol free speech!'

(Woman pisses on flag)

'REEEEE THIS IS OFFENSIVE YOU CAN'T DO THAT I'LL KILL YOU'

It's Muslims.

Also how would you know the same people burning the Koran are the same complaining about the woman burning the flag?

I spelled muslims incorrectly for a reason.

 

Also, I can't say I definitely know they're the same people. However, many of the people who constantly do shit and yell 'free speech!' are the ones who try to be offensive all the time and think you're triggered when you tell them to shut the fuck up. 

 

Chances are these people are also only fine with free speech until it attacks a piece of fabric that's close to them. After all, calling for the death of a woman over pissing on a flag isn't a joke. If you're so sensitive over fabric, maybe it's time to grow up.

 

Generalizations and fingerpointing obviously won't change much; I admit that. However, I think it's fair to point out that the majority of these people flipping out are most likely hypocrites

Why?

She obviously takes issue with America. She didn't accidently piss on old glory, so send her to the like minded.

There are a lot more countries that dislike America than there. Also why would they take her? She's not a citizen there. I assume your suggestion isn't serious though so I won't ask serious questions about it and leave it there.

Well its still symbolic so I won't be happy that someone is pissing on it.

It's offensive to me because I'm an American that loves my country.

And it's symbolism is damaged by urine? Has it affected the values of america? Or has all it done is ruin a perfectly fine peice of cloth? 

The second part isn't really an answer that explains anything. 

I've always been under the impression it was the American people that were important not the flag. Soldiers don't fight for the flag they fight for the people, do they not?

It hasn't taken away from its symbolism but I see it as disrespectful to piss on such a symbolic item.

Well yeah the solders fight for the people not the flag but the flag is symbolic for the country they are fighting for. She can piss on the flag all she wants because she has the right to it but I have the right to be upset that she's pissing on a symbol of my country. I'm not going to wish her death or any thing harmful but I won't be happy about it

Haha, I guess if you want to see it that way.

I see it this way. I live in Ohio. Moved here close to 2 years ago and I hate it. Miss good ol' Massachusetts. But even if I complain and personally don't like the state, nobody's going to tell me I have to leave for having my own opinion. I am making a living here and yes, there are perks I get which is why I stay. Doesn't mean I can't criticize or even dislike the state.

You may or may not be half joking, but the idea that people should be kicked out of their country if they do or say anything against it is actually a pervasive one, currently. If I got a nickel for everytime I heard the words "deport 'em" in the last six months...

I think it's dangerous, because if enough people think those kinds of things they are the ones that will put people into power that believe those things. And then we'll move more towards a totalitarian state.
