No, it shouldn't be allowed.

so you see it as more along the lines of a "Bill of Suggestions" rather then "Rights"?
tulc(doesn't think that sounds right)

Yes, America would be so much better if it were more like North Korea. No freedom of expression if it insults the government or the country!

Had any of those anti-flag, “black lives matter”-type NFL players been born in Kenya, Nigeria, or some other African nation, they would be poor and hungry, and none of their athletic talents could have developed. Indeed, they would be pining to come to America. But they’re so entitled to such an extent that they think it’s okay to bash the country which made them multimillionaire athletes. They should either salute the US flag or go live in a Third World nation of their dreams.

If you don't agree with our Constitution why are you living here in the US?

To be fair, I don't agree with parts of the Constitution and still live here. It's not like it's a holy document or that everyone even agreed with it when it was made part of our government.

Like most political documents, it's a bunch of compromises put together to be something that at least a majority in Congress could agree with. It's imperfect by its very nature.

If there is no protection for freedom of speech then the rest of the Constitution is a worthless piece of paper.

What are you talking about? If I express the view that anti-patriotic attitudes shouldn't be allowed, I am using my free speech in doing so. You're saying that I shouldn't live in the US because you don't agree with the way I use free speech, yet you're claiming to agree with the Constitution. Contradiction much?

lol, I did not say that you SHOULDN"T live in the US or use your right to free speech. I don't have any problem with you voicing your opinion.

I asked you WHY you were living here if you don't like our Constitution?

Um, actually, I neither like nor dislike the US Constitution. Frankly, I'd prefer a country like Spain when Francisco Franco was in power. Even if it were still around, I would stay here in the US because my family is here. I also have run a successful non-profit business and don't want to leave it behind.
