I pledged allegiance to the flag every morning inside an internment camp. I would never burn one, but I'd die to protect the right to do so.

2. I absolutely love Mr Takei!

He speaks for so many of us!

[Warpy]

3. Someone needs to be impolite enough to point out to Orange Caligula

that nearly all flag burners are overseas and that his reach will never extend that far.

Oh, unless he wants to take on the "patriots" who wear it on their asses.

8. Can we PLEASE start with this asshat?

4. look up the proper way to dispose of a worn out flag.

you either burn it or bury it. I think the flag would prefer to be burned in protest.

5. K&R and

Re-tweeted his message. I don't expect that Trump will Respond to him, as He probably thinks George Takei is beneath him and as an Asian, doesn't matter to the White Supremacist community.

6. I can't imagine anything so dear to the Orange one that he would die for

although we may soon find out what he is willing to have our soldiers die for.
