These rights are inherent in every man, woman, and child. A soldier does not "give" them to me. At best, the soldier defends those "rights" and "principles" that are inherent in every man, woman, an child of the country. Flags are merely symbols, and as such, are subject to change both physically and by interpretation. You can wrap yourself up in a flag, hang it, burn it, make a shirt out of it, bury it with your dead. It is still just a symbol that doesn't protect any "rights" or "principles". So go ahead, burn a flag if you think you need to do so, just don't burn a soldier cause he/she just may have to defend your flag burning, inherent natural right having ass.
Thanks for reading. I love you.
