They claim you have freedom of speech, and yet if you burn an american flag you get put on a terrorist watch list.
Really?
Yeah It's pretty ridiculous. There's been lots of cases of people who attended a flag burning for the fuck of it and ended up on a watch list. Even the guys who do it annually just as a statement that they can ended up on there. It's not technically illegal but the state REALLY wishes it was.
