[quote]I think you will find it's the opposite....almost nobody.[/quote] I'm pretty sure the majority of people who think the American flag is just a piece of cloth are the America-hating left.

[quote]No, they're just realists. Given how so many yanks say "freedom" every other word (particularly people that had the reaction you've had) no one should have a bad thing to say about someone walking on a piece of cloth.[/quote] That's a poor argument, considering people who support flag burning are just as likely to use the word "freedom" when they refer to burning the American flag as "freedom of speech".

It's not a poor argument at all.
