It's actually against the law for an American Flag to touch the ground in America.
Granted, the law is never enforced, unless it's a mass flag burning, but still.

I love how most of them only care the American flag was on the ground.
Also, they can get over it, flags are like $10. It's not like we have 1 flag in this country. They're not that sacred.

bigbug1992 posted...It's actually against the law for an American Flag to touch the ground in America. Did you read the actual results of the trial, or just glance at Wikipedia? Being arrested for burning a single flag in protest was ruled unconstitutional, but the entire Code wasn't thrown out. Plus, burning a flag can still be viewed as an act of terrorism, which will defintely get you arrested. Just because that particular section of the law was thrown out, doesn't mean cops won't find a way to get you punished.

I supported my stance, you have not. Read that.. In United States v. Eichman, which was decided exactly 25 years ago, on June 11, 1990, the Supreme Court once again ruled that burning the flag was an example of constitutionally protected free speech.

Care should be exercised in the handling of the flag, to protect it from becoming soiled or damaged. However, you are not required to destroy the flag if it touches the ground. As long as the flag remains suitable for display, even if washing or dry-cleaning (which is an acceptable practice) is required, the flag may continue to be displayed.

You gotta remember that in America, there are groups of people who get huge patriotic boners over the littlest things, and if you so much as question any of it, you'll often be told to get the fuck out of the country. Honestly, maybe Rusev should have won and burned the flag on stage. Can you imagine the national heat that would have generated? Of course, knowing this country, somebody would try to assassinate the guy. |

From what I understand the "Flag Code", which includes the "rule" that a flag should not touch the ground of become soiled, is just a guideline, and not a law.
Part of that code is also the idea that the flag, or it's image, should not be used on clothing, other than military and police/firefighter uniforms. So all those people complaining about it hitting the ground should probably get rid of all the USA t-shirts, doo rags, beer cozies, etc. |
I didn't see the match, was it really an American flag? I know there are places where they'll remove a stripe or a star from decorative flags, so it's technically not an American flag, so they don't have to take it down or illuminate it at night. Wouldn't surprise me if they did this, since they had to know it might be as issue for some.

I watched WM7 about a month or two ago. At the end, Hogan is waving the American flag, and at one point wipes the sweat off his face with it. I got a kick outta that. Surprised it didn't raise any attention, even back in 1991.

other flags are not American flags other flags don't represent the most vital stretch of land on planet Earth as it pertains to the progress of mankind as we've come to know it. other flags didn't fight for its freedom, and subsequently YOUR freedom, from the british and other various crazed, overzealous countries who overstepped their boundaries other flags simply don't mean as much to humanity as Old Glory. even if you are not American and can't identify any 1 of the 50 members of our Union on a US map, you are still forever in debt to the degree of liberty this nation has granted you and yours, and the least we can all do is prevent that precious symbol from touching the ground it protects. thank you. |

you're welcome.I was wondering if WWE was going to let the flag touch the ground during this match. Then they did and I could see the shitstorm coming from miles away. Honestly, it was pretty dumb of them to allow it.
Personally, I don't care. Yeah, I get it. It's the symbol of our country and stuff. Context is important, though. Did you throw the flag on the ground and then stomp on it, or did you drop it by mistake? It's a silly thing to get upset about.http://ultimaxe.deviantart.com/ - Get ready to ROCK!

First of all, the flag didn't fight anything. Second, we won our independence from England, with a HUGE amount of aid from France, because they like trolling England. Eventually England decided it wasn't worth the expense, after having a;ready been nearly bankrupted by the 7 Years War (and it can be argued that England didn't "overstep it's boundaries". England had just basically fought a war, in the Colonies, to defend the colonists, who then balked at having their taxes go up to pay for said war, when previously they were the least taxed people in the empire. The English honestly gave them a TON of slack, repealing unpopular taxes and trying to find a compromise, then finally put their foot down after the Boston Tea Party, and them destroying the modern day equivalent of a couple million dollars in property.
As far as "other flags" not fighting for "your freedom"... I suppose the English didn't also fight in WWII, or Russia, for that matter (who really won the war in Europe more than the other allies)

Dude.... I'm 100% born and raised American and even I don't fully understand this whole flag issue some people are bitching about.
Looking at the story line, they had an American good guy (Cena) trying to stop a guy who literally refers to himself as the "Bulgarian Brute" (Rusev) who is the one who KICKED CENA IN THE FACE, CAUSING CENA TO DROP THE AMERICAN FLAG during last night's match. Why? Because Rusev is a BAD GUY..... that's an important element in the STORY LINE. In the end, the good guy American (Cena) succeeded and beat the self-proclaimed "Bulgarian Brute".
Looking at it, it's a pretty good story line which has a credible villain who was a LEGIT threat (which is a good thing for the story), but in the end, after a hard fight, the good guy prevailed and the American flag rides high.
Sounds pretty damn good to me.
I don't see anything wrong with it.
And yes, there have been movies where they have done WORSE to the American flag. Hell, I vaguely remember an episode of the old G.I Joe cartoon where they took down the American flag and replaced it with the COBRA flag.

Wow.....maybe we need to be invaded. Lose some territory and force people to realize what that flag means.
Yes whining about this is trivial but to just call it a piece of cloth?
It's no more or less special than any other nations flag and yet the US seem to be the main one that kicks up a stink if anyone so much as sneezes in the direction of their flag. You cretins need to get over yourselves.
I'm pretty sure Poland missed their flag during WW2. Same story with France....
For the stink we make about our country and having pride for it, we've never been invaded.
Europe wouldn't be in the situation they're in now if they took more pride in their flag.
Right on the money.
Somebody explain the causation between pride in a flag and being invaded. Dying to know.
Yeah, I'd like to know this as well considering we were pretty prideful of our country and flag in the 1810s...yet we still got invaded and the White House got set on fire. It actually kinda looked something like this

Country was born off of the backs of slaves. Not many countries can claim that distinction either, in fact you're absolutely rife with racism and bigotry even today.
A lot of countries were developed enough to not have slavery long before America decided to grow a conscience and stop it. Stop pretending you're some kind of heroic lot who fight for freedom at every turn, lying just make a you and your countrymen look even worse.KainFourteh posted...Wolf_J_Flywheel posted...

You're fuckin British aren't you...talking bout racism... FohOpportunities multiply as they are seized. - Sun Tzughettorevival posted...folks keep bringing up what happened with other flags
other flags are not American flags
other flags don't represent the most vital stretch of land on planet Earth as it pertains to the progress of mankind as we've come to know it.
other flags didn't fight for its freedom, and subsequently YOUR freedom, from the british and other various crazed, overzealous countries who overstepped their boundaries
other flags simply don't mean as much to humanity as Old Glory. even if you are not American and can't identify any 1 of the 50 members of our Union on a US map, you are still forever in debt to the degree of liberty this nation has granted you and yours, and the least we can all do is prevent that precious symbol from touching the ground it protects.
thank you.

http://tinyurl.com/nrbuer5America decided to be different and better than Britain by doing the same shit but worse lol. And by Britain, I mean England specifically like nearly anyone who uses the term Britain or UK. I make the distinction since England ruined a bunch of good shit while Scotland, Wales and (Northern) Ireland didn't and the former fucked up a bunch a shit for them too. Not really fond of England but still like it better than America. Scotland tho <3This is GameFAQs.

If there was ever a country with such an inferiority complex toward their neighbours...
Still Scotland gave us Irn-Bru, Whiskey, Golf and Sir Alex Ferguson, so they are ok in my book.MUFC- The Religion.

Scotland hasn't been a country since being part of the UK, just like every former country that still makes up the UK. However, most countries don't like their neighbor(s) or have some type of rivalry with them.
Canada has an inferiority complex to America but's (mostly) superior to America
Ireland has an inferiority complex to the UK but you could argue which is better
New Zealand has an inferiority complex to Australia but it is WAY inferior to Oz. Oz FTW!
Denmark vs Sweden. Pretty equal but I'll take Denmark. I like Norway over both though.
Croatia vs Serbia. Croatia wins in a landslide.
Russia vs Ukraine. I much prefer Ukraine.
Japan vs China vs Korea? Japan wins.
Latin America and its million beefs? Let's not even start
I can go on and on. The end result regardless is, lol America.This is GameFAQs. People here take great pride in ignoring common sense.1. It's not illegal to let an American flag touch the ground. It also doesn't necessitate the destruction of the flag...as long as it remains properly displayable, there is no need to destroy it.
2. Burning a flag is not always an act of protest. In fact, burning is the preferred method of disposal for a flag that has become tattered or otherwise no longer in displayable condition.ghettorevival posted...KainFourteh posted...

Freedom of speech is not unique to America, or even to modern times.DeathMagnetic80 posted...Second, we won our independence from England, with a HUGE amount of aid from France, because they like trolling England. Eventually England decided it wasn't worth the expense
A country that probably could have won if they had stuck it out and gone in full-force, eventually decided that the costs of the fight outweighed any benefits that victory would have brought.
A fairly good description of both the Revolutionary War and the Vietnam War.DeathMagnetic80 posted...As far as "other flags" not fighting for "your freedom"... I suppose the English didn't also fight in WWII, or Russia, for that matter (who really won the war in Europe more than the other allies)
WWII was won with American steel, British intelligence, and Russian blood.
DeathMagnetic80 posted...TL/DR version, open a history book sometime, for the love of God. I love my country, but let's not pretend we're some beacon of perfection and the only voice of freedom in the world.
True. I love my country, but it really make me sad how some people here seem to think that nothing was decent in any other country before America existed.

Honestly, it's well past time for wrestling as a whole to largely stop categorizing wrestlers as babyfaces or heels. Just let the wrestlers do their gimmick, and let the audience decide who they want to like or not, instead of trying to make a really crappy morality tale out of it all.- Boards
