With all that is going on. Where do we draw the line when it comes to free speech? Especially since the stuff in this picture, burning our country's flag, ripting, looting, etc. Is expressed and not just speech!

Where do we draw the line in free speech? We don't. If we did, it would be approved speech.

The First Amendment protects the right of the Westboro Baptist Church to hold anti-gay protests outside military funerals, the Supreme Court ruled. The 8-1 ruling backs an appeals court decision to throw out a $5 million victory for Albert Snyder, who sued the fundamentalist church after its members picketed his son's funeral.
What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend, it ceases to exist.

I reserve the right to be offended by the disrespect of our flag.

SPC (Join to see) I usually really try to be respectful and intelligent in my replies on RP, these people need to be deported to a third world country that doesn't even have toilet paper. Very sad that Facebook is even allowing such stuff (even for a minute) to be posted. This isn't Freedom of Speech in my opinion; it is rude, ridiculous, and just plain childish and immature. These people have no clue what Freedom of Speech is or the Freedom they enjoy in this country. Do something like in other foreign countries and see where it will get you. Disgusting! Sorry if I got a little carried away!

As recently as the 9th of July, she has communicated violent threats against the military, children, senior citizens and posted videos of people's homes she wants to shoot, because they don't condone her, uh, ideals. Lovely!

Some speech should be nice and widely distributed so that the whole country can see how they feel about the USA and the flag. Their boss might be interested. So might their mothers. So might the local VFW...
