    United 93: Remembering 9/11
    Everyone read this!!
    The year was 1989, and the Supreme Court made a landmark decision. Gregory Lee Johnson earned his right to desecrate the American flag. Along with his anti-American chants he torched the American flag that our forefathers fought so bravely to preserve. This was a close 5-4 decision in favor of Johnson and his freedom of speech. This decision brings immediate nausea to me.
    A flag that symbolizes our great nation and has been altered to accommodate the changes of this nation, has been terribly mistreated and those associated with allowing this mistreatment can only be defined as Revolutionist. These revolutionist have two choices, either rise up against the government and be prosecuted for doing so, or even better LEAVE. From the flags origins on June 14, 1777 when the continental congress passed the first Flag Act, the flag altered several times to accompany the changing of the United States. Several United States Presidents have been involved in these changes from Taft, Monroe and ending with Eisenhower in 1959. The American flag has such close relation with our armed forces that it is sown to every military uniform. From the United States capital to the state capitals and even local courthouses the United States Flag flies high with honor. We even fly our Flag at half mass for weeks after a United States president dies as a great sign of respect. On our soldiers caskets that have sacrificed their lives so valiantly we lay the American Flag on the casket to remain with the soldier forever as a sign of respect.
    It is amazing that our justices can be so tainted with the thought that in making a right, respectful and prideful decision they could offend someone and might be labeled as politically incorrect that they chose to make the wrong decisions such as in the Johnson case. They have allowed a 229 year old national patriotic symbol to be desecrated in such a manor as Gregory Johnson engulfing it into flames. It has become a sad day in The United States, when representatives of the United States are so afraid that they will offend someone that they make liberal decisions that have began to deteriorate the pride, morality and symbolism of our country’s foundations. We have become so ungrateful with what we have, we have forgotten about all the toes that were stepped on and blood shed for the past 200 years that allowed us to enjoy these freedoms and amenities. It is about time the true citizens that are proud of the country in which they live in stand up for what is right, even if offends people. If you hate the country you live in so much, that you chose to burn one of its most sacred symbols you should be prosecuted to the fullest extent or get the hell out of the United States of America. If this decision that allows anyone to desecrate the flag like Johnson has, doesn’t burn deep in every United States citizens soul, than you have no pride for your country and you should also move to one of the other countries in the world, that put up with far less anti-symbolic speech than you enjoy here in the U.S.
    Decisions that carry the same anti-sembolic message such as the Texas v. Johnson outcome can only affect America in a negative way. These decisions have allowed the gates to open up and let certain groups try to take over our great country and will only get worse if something is not done quickly. Whether this revolution is carried out by Vincent Fox, with his citizens ILLEGALLY entering the U.S. by the millions every year or from a communist founded group such as the ACLU that without the far left Liberal judges giving them such immense power would have never been able to represent and defend a man who was a part of NAMBLA (North America Man/Boy Love Association) that sexually raped and murdered a juvenile child. Americans must stick out their chest, stand up for what is right and bring conservative principals (aka decency) back into this country or we shall all fear for our children having to grow up in a country that seems to be headed straight to HELL. This road to hell is being paved by far-left liberals that have destroying America #1 on their agenda. If what I have suggested is in opposition to the constitution according to Brennan, Marshall, Blackmun, Kennedy and unfortunately Scalia, then I am proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution.
