The PROBLEM is that the PEOPLE don't give a shit. They can't think past dinner. Seems to me like a larger percentage our our population is only concerned with their own comfort, and simply use any issue that they can feel self-righteous about as a chest pounding "I DO TOO CARE" comeback for those of us that would condemn them for their intellectual laziness.

Burning a flag is one of the most serious
] commentaries we can make about the activity of our government.
] I thought the ability to stand up and say, categorically, "My
] government is wrong." was somehow important to the American
] ideal.

This is an extremely important point. In the past, the greatest advantage of living in the US was the freedom to stand up and voice your opinion no matter what it may be. Correct me if I'm wrong but this ideal is what our country was founded on. At the present time it seems that if your opinion does not closely coincide with the powers that be then you are in trouble.
