Yeah I got it. It would have been funnier if the writer didn't call the guy a terrorist for burning an american flag though.. Americans seem to throw that word around a lot lately; eventually it's not going to mean anything.

the guy is probably some college student "living in the moment" of the protest rally.

i realize that it is part of the freedom of speech that persons are allowe to burn the flag ( at least in this country ) but i do not agree with it.

the pic is humorous because of how ironic it is.

Yeah, it would have been funny just showing some jackass setting himself on fire while trying to burn the US flag, but the fucking retard who captioned it sucked all the humour out of it by calling him a terrorist.

Some people need to get it through their thick fucking heads that jsut because someone chooses to demonstrate against this invasion, it doesn;t make them a terrorist.
And the same goes with labelling every anti-american raghead and sand-nigger in the middle east as a terrorist.

fucking idiots.

I would think its safe to say, that anyone with an IQ over 100 would not consider the above action as terrorism. I think it was more meant to convey a point rather than label a particular person. Im sure 99.9% of the people that post here know this. I would also add that 99.9% of the US posters on here would label you as anti-US, although you claim not to be. Its just a matter of perception and how you spin it.

That picture is older than the current Iraq conflict. I believe it was taken shortly after 9/11. I remember seeing it shortly afterward.

Yeah, but people are, for the most part, stupid.
When you start loosely throwing around terms like terrorist when referring to protestors, you desensitize people to how brutal terrorists and their actions really are.

Dubya started this whole thing with his infamous 'If you're not with us, you're against us' statement which groups normal people in with american hating terrorists. The Bush supporters on this forum have even twisted people who are 'anti war' into 'pro saddam'. I'm sorry but it doesn't work that way... issues like this are not black and white.

I would also add that 99.9% of the US posters on here would label you as anti-US, although you claim not to be.

Fuck that, I'm PRO-CANADA!

I'm just 'anti-bush' for his stance on Iraq.

I guess that that makes me anti-american pro-saddam because if I'm not with you, I must be against you.

Yah this picture was sent around like a couple weeks to a month after 9/11. So you can see why he is called a terrorist.

k thx by.

You knew what I meant; and that quote seems to be a common theme, can VV trademark that.

I'm considering burning a French flag so now I have to be more careful. Thanks Mad!

Not to mention the penchant of a certain persuasion of political animal for throwing derogatory racial remarks around in the hopes of killing a debate.

The label is dumb. The picture sequence is poetic justice.

The pic is so great because it's got multiple forms of irony. The guy burning the flag catching fire, and an idiot making fun of another idiot. 2 for 1!

Miir and Dregor are terrorists. I have teh proof.

They are the founder members of Al-Qanada.

Again I shall spend the day with "Blame Canada" running through my head. It's a most inappropriate inner soundtrack for these troubled days ><

Wait you mean France actually has a flag ? I thought they just accepted the one of whoever invaded them .. hmmm .. I need more coffee

Burke · Post by **Burke** » April 2, 2003, 1:43 pm

I thought France's flag was all white.
