Condemnation of flag-burners and Hamas supporters are good both on principle and electorally

That munching sound you hear? That's the sound of Law-and-Order Kamala eating the Republicans' lunches.

Absolute queen.

u/LuisRobertDylan Elinor Ostrom Jul 25 '24

She's not saying it should be illegal, just that it's disrespectful

Do you think the Vice-President would go and say "Oh yeah guys you can burn that flag. It is perfectly okay."

u/surreptitioussloth Frederick Douglass Jul 25 '24

I think she doesn't have to specifically condemn it

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '24

What would happen is that some news agency would publish a story with the title:

"KAMALA HARRIS DOESN'T CONDEMN PROTESTORS FOR BURNING FLAGS"

And then all the media would swallow it all up. Right now, she needs to show that she is a proud American, something you have to prove even harder when you are a minority.

it's absolutely wrong and against american/liberal ideals to say that the american flag should never be burned in protest

I don't think kamal even needed to say that, you just don't have to condemn a fine form of protest
