38. His act is burning a book Sarge. There is no inherent criminality in his action
You guys making these cases are making offense that someone "plausibly" could respond criminally to, is a crime it's self which clearly the logic doesn't hold up long without giving up on freedom of expression or liberty as a whole.

Freedom isn't easy, man. It's hard because it is worth it. There can't be protection from offense and have a free society.

You are better off demanding the troops be brought home because the nature of our society and the ones we occupy are too at odds for military action to do more good than harm.
