O Where Art Thou Defender's Of Our Sacred Constitution

I despise any individual who would dare burn an American Flag out of rage or anger,however, our sacred rights of freedom of expression will be wiped away,one law at a time if we do not stand up against such threats to our Constitution....The proper procedure for discarding a torn,damaged,unuseable flag is to burn it......Such laws against flag burning infringe on our rights and will only lead to more flag burningsss......I would never burn an American flag in anger, out of respect to my Country,family and friends who have fought to defend this great nation, and all those who have laid down there lives in defense of our way of life, but I cannot support a law that undermines our Constitution and walks all over our Bill of Rights......

and besides.....justice will be served upon those who would do such a thing without the need for laws...........

Abbas, whose real first name is Muhammed, was apprehended Monday night in a compound of three buildings.
His capture was made possible by information from U.S. intelligence, officials said. Several others were also captured at the compound, the officials said. Various documents and passports were also seized.
"One of our key objectives is to search for, capture and drive out terrorists who have found safe haven in Iraq," Central Command said in a statement. "The capture of Abu Abbas in Iraq removes a portion of the terror network supported by Iraq and represents yet another victory in the global war on terrorism." ........... Link
