  2. Reminds me of some of the arguments I had in the American Legion Hall.

    My father died, my mother served, I served, my son served to protect the freedom symbolized by the flag. Which, abhorrent as it is to me, includes the right to burn the flag.

    I carry the American flag in my heart. You can never burn my flag.

  5. Howdy jeg, I thought we'd lost ya...

    Yes, I took a few photos, but not a bunch. Hard to aim a camera while riding, and riding was more fun than stopping. I'll post a few.
