A chat with a freeper about flag burning amendments and such

[LittleClarkie]

He was spouting his usual regurgitated crapola courtesy of Sean Hannity when I brought up the flag burning amendment.

I think I hit upon a good strategy for shutting him down. See what you think.

He started talking about how no one in this country should want to burn a flag anyway. I asked, "Well, do you think such a person should be arrested?" He said no, but people shouldn't want to do such a thing. I said, "But do you think it should be illegal?" He kept going on his line of thinking, and I repeated, "Yes, but do. you. think. it. should. be. illegal?" Well, no, he said, but... "Well then, you're not for the flag burning amendment then, are you."

He didn't really have an answer for that.

He also wanted to talk about poor ol' Joe Lieberman being kicked out of the party and how no one would vote for John Kerry, but I wasn't really in the mood. Joe wasn't kicked out, he just didn't get the nomination he seems to think he was entitled to, and for fuck's sake Kerry's not running for anything.

He kinda clammed up on me somewhere in the middle of my tirade. I think I took the fun out of the conversation for him.
