How About An Anti Flag-Pin Burning Amendment?

by AltHippo @ 4:48 pm. Filed under Uncategorized

Since it is clear that our nation is paralyzed and so not able to close our borders, feed the homeless, develop businesses in the inner cities and save people from having their homes taken by foreclosure due to ruthless mortgage companies, all because some folks don’t wear a flag lapel pin, we need to lead a national movement to demand that Congress and the states make requiring officeholders to wear a flag lapel pin the 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Why stop at office holders? Every man, woman, and child should be required to wear a flag pin at all times. They can wear it on their lapel, or better yet, right next to their Regan tatoos.
