  • There's far to many idiots like the bald guy in our country these days. Makes me loose faith in humanity.

  • Said Hyder Akbar is an author. He wrote the book "Come back to Afghanistan" which I'm reading right now. It's amazing. He is NOT linked to the freakin Taliban in anyway. He father is a governor, and is good friends with many political leaders there. He actually seems like a nice kid. So what he burnt a flag? I was not even aware that was against the law?

  • that bald guy was a fucking moron..."it's not an inanimate object" Yes it fucking is you faggot skin head.....I love the other dude "oh, great let me talk to it and ask his feelings" hahahahah I hate morons like that bald guy

  • a flag is just a bunch of fucking cloth from china...who cares if someone lights a flag on fire, it's the same thing as lighting a towel on fire. People freak out so much because it "represents" America. I'm sure their parents are pakistani and have had family that have been killed by Americans. Who knows what happened, I've had plenty of times I hated American and I live here. People just take it to seriously.

  • And just in case the viewer dared to think about who was harmed and whether the excessive punishment was justified, the anchor says, but youd at least kick their butt and I would help you.

    I WOULD HELP YOU.

    Thats a news programme, where the individual is promoting his ideology (actually hes promoting the channels allegiance). Where I come from that guy there...FIRED. No ifs or buts. Hes fired for expressing personal opinion on a news segment. Fired. Americas been poisoned.

  • You dont what their motive was so they need punished severely just in case. Just in case they had some bad thoughts.

    Pre emptive war is one thing. Pre emptive crime, with no evidence and all the punishment. How messed up is that. How can that guy sit there and defend anomolous treatment totally out of step with the crime, and unconstitutional as normal. Americans are being brainwashed into believing their constitution can hurt them. When the truth is America thrived because of its constitution.

  • Uhh... the bald dude says a flag is not inanimate? Why doesn't he go home, get his 2 flags, and have a nice dinner with them whilst discussing the future of his career?

  • Well, it's a stupid thing to burn anything on a wooden house, but who gives a fuck about the actual flag. If you care that much about a piece of cloth that is manufactured by the thousands by a machine somewhere, there is something wrong with you. You need affection and help in your life.

  • in·an·i·mate/inˈanəmit/Adjecti­ve

    1. Not alive, esp. not in the manner of animals and humans.

    2. Showing no sign of life; lifeless.

    Bald guy = retard.

  • When the bald guy says someone should beat the kids up he might be in violation of the law. I don't think you're allowed to urge people to commit an act of violence on someone. Though I oppose flag-burning I hate when judges bend the law to punish something that's not actually illegal or up the penalty. It;s like giving a Rush Limbaugh five years in jail for a parking ticket because you don't like Rush Limbaugh. .

  • The bald guy is worthless in terms of analysis. "They should get beat up." What the fuck? Let the legal process progress.

  • Oh noes! Holy shit, somebody dun set far to a Murricun flag!!! That's oughta be illegal an such!!!

    Whatever. The bald guy is a fucking moron. Who cares if somebody burns an American flag. It's just a flag. Charge them with reckless endangerment for setting fire to something that's attached to somebody's house, and leave it at that. It shouldn't matter whether it was an American flag or a bath towel. I hate that this country has such issues with stuff like that. The military assholes are worst.

  • I hate flag worshippers.

  • The American flag is a symbol of imperialism, so yeah it deserves to be burnt.

  • "oh good can i go out with both of them, that sounds kinky" haha

  • Nothing wrong with burning the flag, just leave the Constitution alone.

  • Don't burn the flag, Wash it

  • So i guess if someone spits their gum on the ground they should be leg ironed because they were obviously planning for someone to stick to it and fall on their face killing them, which is attempted murder, not to mention it is an American sidewalk, that is just awful. (Complete sarcasm)

  • Well they should be allowed to burn the flag even though its absolutely disgusting. However I don't disagree with kicking them out of the country. If they hate it enough to burn its flag then they obviously don't deserve to be here.

  • @7xxJohnnyRebelxx7 I agree completely.

  • I'm Canadian and think it is disgusting to burn another nations flag. But it shouldn't be a law. As a friend told me once, this is what makes Canada and the US amazing free nations, our ability and right to freedom of expression. Thats what our soldiers are fighting for.

  • A MAN SHOULD BE ABLE TO BURN A FLAG IF HE DAMN WELL PLEASES

  • its a piece of cloth, if your state were burning than worry about that

  • For crying out loud...it's a piece of material...

  • @mschurbro

    its a symbol

  • FUCK USA

  • When will that guy stop talking

  • @friesnchips9 k....................

  • I don't agree with what they did, but if you want these people hanged for flag burning your no better than them.

  • Fuck Hyder Akbar i hope he rots in hell, stupid fucking piece of shit

  • When was the LAST time anyone of the muslims said it ALL sucks. That we should have never hated each other!

    From what I've heard from Muslim Imans, it's ALL about NOT "discussing" religion. Why doesn;t Saudi Arabia allow Catholic churches in "THEIR" land?

    If your choice is to ban all the Cristians, then who you protect? Go and Figure.

  • Fuck america!!!

  • @rehpic84 Allahu - fucking - akbarr!!!

  • Three guys (with obvious ties), three bullets = problem solved.

  • That's fucking stupid they need to drop that. If they couldn't change the amendment least make a law that says if you light a flag on fire it makes it a risk of fire burning and therefore shall be arrested.

  • No one could pay me to go too yale Americans that live in America that hate America should get a hobby and stop buring the flag.Move out of the country if you hate it wtf.

  • I fly my Communist flag over a burning american flag all the time.

  • @thISmurderous Yeah do that shit by me I dare you. I fly my shotgun in the air all the time as the faggot holds the commie flag in the air.

  • @shadowhunter388 the only fags are american and their pro gay agenda ahahahahahaha

  • @thISmurderous Ha thats funny. Go get fucked in the ass by Kim Jung Ill and suck dick. That's what I heard faggot commies like you do. Your apparently mad because you wish you lived in our country but considering how many times they denied your green card.

  • @shadowhunter388 we dont care about you're gay tendencies I already said that and why are americans always worried about communist dont u know youre own gov. did 9/11.

  • @thISmurderous 11/9 to the rest of the world

  • THE PROBLEM HERE IS... you can burn the american flag. but firstly, only if you own the flag.. secondly, it should not be attached to somebody elses house..

  • If you burn the flag you deserve to die!

    Search and enjoy!

    Cannibal Corpse - They Deserve To Die

  • 0:32, lol no getting drunk is not an excuse and as a prosecutor he should know that getting drunk is not an excuse for anything.

  • @DaveDoggOwns

    getting drunk is, in fact, an excuse

    it's called influence under alcohol

  • @AllstarHunE Getting drunk is fundamentally consensual, so saying you are under the influence of alchohol is not a valid excuse for a crime.

  • @DaveDoggOwns

    @DaveDoggOwns

    you must have either never been to a court trial or study the field of law altogether.

    Being under the influence of alcohol, is in fact, a possible excuse for a crime.

    ofcourse you will be punished for such and such, but it will be less harsh a punishment. It is often used to distinguish first and second degree murder.

    i would give you a link to an article that describes the guidlines of the defense under the influence of alcohol but youtube is not letting me

  • @AllstarHunE Well that law doesn't make sense since both pulling a trigger and getting drunk are fundamentally consensual actions.

  • @DaveDoggOwns

    the intoxication of alcohol makes it unclear whether the mens rea was involved in the crime.

    im not gonno say more cuz this feels like lecturing a brick wall.

    just take 1 minute to search (mens rea) vs (actus reus) on google.

    your as stupid as the bald guy on the video saying that the american flag is not

    an inanimate object.

  • @DaveDoggOwns

    so you will have to do your research on your own to help your ignorance of the facts

  • wow, what the fuck is wrong with america? these assholes are allowed to study at yale and welcomed into our country so they burn our flag? oh and whats worst is that if you oppose them being striped of their passports your an ass hole.. this countries extreme liberal views are gonna sink it. NATIONAL PRIDE RIP

  • @bedodgingbullets1 What do you mean with being "allowed" to study at Yale? They're buying a service that Yale provides.

  • If you don't respect the flag, you're not burning the symbol of the state, you're only burning a piece of cloth.

  • "retard"

    I had a brother w/downs (God rest his soul).

    Retard is like saying nigger. Don't be such a stupid bigot you fucking moron.

    Your welcome.

  • you act as if i cared, and thought that there was a god....

  • Burn american flag is a good thing..!

  • Flag burning (for hate purposes) should be punishable by DEATH! That is the ultimate form of hatred and disrespect!

  • They shouldnt have even gave him a slap on the wrist they should have gave him a free blowjob for being so awesome

  • they should of put Bill O' Reilly

  • those scumbags need to be declared enemy combatants and sent down to GItmo

  • I am confused...

    Is Fox trying to be impartial?

    What's up with that?

  • i know, right?! isn't that wierd!

  • Fox being "impartial" - you would be surprised to know that on most news reports they present both sides. Unlike MSM, FOX presents many sides and lets folks decide. This is for hard news shows like this - Beck is an editorial kinda show, not "news".

    Watch Smith, he's pretty cool. It's a good show.

  • I think the flag did talk, it probably said burn me. When burning the U.S. flag always dip in fuel first instead of throwing fuel on it while its already lite.

  • Traitors leave our country now if you dont like the government dont hate the country apparently people dont see the difference so leave if you dont like our country

  • why dont you fix your fuckin governemt so that the world wouldnt hate the us so much you greedy imperialist bastards

  • When you say "fix your fuckin government" What exactly do you mean by fix?

  • Mmmm sorry..but how about people who hate this country get out. Move to Canada where you belong.

  • unfortunately, it's not really up to us.

  • @Rustinwilson How about you leave because you like the country? You're wrong for liking this country, for liking the authoritarianism, for liking the way that this country controls what we do, for liking the way it operates without any compassion for people. You're wrong, so, you should be the one to get out, while the rest of us stay back and tear down the corrupt and pernicious system. We shouldn't ahve to leave.

  • @efletch91 i do not think of what the government does because i hate it i love my country but hate my government and i say protest the government without burning our flag instead burning down congress

  • That fucker taking up for those racist animals isn't american.deport his ass along with those fuckers and see if they are thankfull for his sympothetic ass.

  • It is a piece of property located on someone's property. You are causing endangerment and destruction of private property.

  • You are allowed to burn the American Flag.

    But it is stupid to burn it in, or around, a wooden house.

    However, these men cannot be punished; it would be unconstitutional...plain and simple.

  • They can't be punished extra for the fact that it was a flag, it should be punished to the same extend similar arsons (not involving flags) are.

  • 4:42 i guess american flags is all the tail he can get.

  • Rights are for U.S. citizens. Can they vote? It isn't their flag. What country are they from. I will make a flag to look like theirs and burn it. If I bought one it would contribute to their economy which I would rather not do. So each day out of a paper sack which would be thrown away I would like to make their flag with the colors resembling their flag out of what I can dig out of the garbage. Videotape and then air it. Would that be o.k. I don't dig through garbage. So not happening

  • Mr. Akbar IS an American Citizen. (He has dual citizenship.) Is also a member of Skull and Bones Society (Just like George W. Bush). And practically all American flags are made in China or Taiwan...Check your American Flags. On top of that, you can't only support freedom that you agree with.

  • Also, if you do take the time to Wiki him, you'll find out that he does NOT have ties to Al Qaeda and in fact worked as a translator for the U.S .government. If you read the Wiki you'll find out how he saved the lives of American soldiers by getting an Afghan man, Abdul Wali, to turn himself in (instead of firing a rocket at a military base) and assured Wali he would not be mistreated. Wali later had his pelvis broken to where he could no longer urinate and died.

  • America doesn't have a spine anymore. That's why shit like this happens and is allowed. Full of complete and spinless pussies. Just like the president. The days of the mighty republic are over.......

  • From an American- I agree.

    Those with spines, those of us willing to show or exercise power for what is "right"- go down in the books as warmongers and criminals. I love my country, but a certain wing of individuals are doing their best to make her weak.

    I don't care what kind of rights one thinks he has, if he burns my country's flag while living under my country's protection, his face will be hitting my countries dirt, and won't be rising until he's kissed and made up with Her.

  • It truly is sad of what you speak of in terms of believing in what is morally/ethically "right." Those who are for the Constitution and against the failures of the president and his cabinet full of heathens are labled as "right-wing extremists" and "domestic terrorists." How about the psycho liberals that threw shit at Bush's motorcade? Nobody said a thing about that. You call Obama a failure and you're considered a racist. Fuck double standards. And that guy who burned the flag, fuck him too.

  • This is old and irrelevent. This is from 2007. We're in late 2009 going in to a new decade. We're almost in 2010.

  • I guess that's a good reason to not rely on youtube as a primary news source.

  • Exactly.

  • meh

  • in my counrty even if you step on your nation's flag you go to jail with treason

  • This is bullshit

  • actually it is not illgeal, but you can burn the flag, but rather not. The flag is an object, and not the country. At least they did not do something harmful to show that they hated americia. I know the flag symbolizes somthing, but better than doing soimething dangerous

  • They have the potential to do something dangerous. I think taking away their passport for flag burning is too harsh. However, these guys should be kept tab by the CIA and FBI now because they are potentially very dangerous. We are living in an age where one person can destroy the lives of many other so I believe wire tapping and other information gathering methods might be necessary. But I hope that they create a commission to keep track of CIA and FBI actions.

  • so? flag??? its a fking sheet with stars on it...who cares u oversensiting pmsing morons...

    The only other country that'll put u in jail for that is probably china....congrats u.s. and china...communist

  • couldnt agree more. well said

  • I think flag burning should be legal. That being said, you really have to be a attention whoring dumnshit to burn it, especially if you're an american citizen. Even if you disagree with America's policies, burning the flag retarded. Illegal? No. Retarded? Yes.

  • what a joke the guy says if it wasn't a American flag they wouldnt be prosecuting it

    HELLO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    this is America if I went to Spain or Brazil or Iraq or Africa and burned the flag of their country I guarantee I or anyone would be treated EXTREMELY HARSHLY

    MAYBE EVEN PRISON TIME

    SHEP IS A FAG LOSER HOW CAN HE DEFEND THIS

  • Spain??? Brazil? Africa, are u sarah palin? I can assure u that in Europe if u burned the flag of a private citizen it would be treated as if u burned their bin.... burning a flag is really nothing, IT IS AN OBJECT and unlike what that retard says it is an inanimate object... as I see it americans have serious issues with patriotism! get a life the USA is a pretty shit country anyways!

  • @viksula5

    Dude, find me any place in Europe that gives a shit. Honestly, I'd wipe my ass with my flag and I, nor any other sensible person in this country would give a shit.

  • They my have the right to burn the Red White & Blue. I served for 15 years to defend that right. But I also have the right to express my self by kicking the ass of any one burning that same flag.

  • The flag represents the Ideals of freedom and liberty that the United States strive to achieve...DESPITE what our government represents. If you want to protest the government, burn a picture of the people you disagree with, but not the flag.

  • So, using that logic, the next time a KKK member burns a cross, it should not be considered a hate crime.

  • free speech bitch

    if a church can display the cross then anyone can burn it.

    Its not a hate crime, you are allowed to hang the nazi flag outside your home if you want to.

  • Your a fucking idiot you taliban fuck.

  • when they burn a cross, its first of all not a crime, no humans were harmed... secondly does the cross have any significance for the black community? u sir are retarded, u should look up what a crime really his, and you should also check what defines racism at the same time!

  • Why is flag burning somehow a sacred right granted to us by the First Amendment, BUT the Barack Obama Joker Poster and the infamous "noose-hanging" in Jena all somehow illegal? Oh yeah, because the first is committed by overprivileged white kids from the Ivy Leagues and the other two are not! Social Justice Anyone?

  • It's a flag get over it i burn the american flag all the time.

  • thats cool i burn the british flag all the time too.

  • @Tlax13 Why?

  • @Tlax13 yeah me too and the american one (i am british)

  • HA! This discussion is pointless.

  • Was the flag theres if it wasnt then they still had no right to burn it, and if that flag wasnt caught by the policement couldent it have burned down the whole house?

  • The bald guy is letting his feewings get in the way.

  • Its a piece of cloth. People getting worked up over a damn rag? Solute it? for what?! what da hell has that flag done for me? Amerikkka has done nothing for me and these students should not have goten in trouble for this. They say we have freedom but as you can see we dont. and they are right, if it was not an american flag no one would care at all. This is stupid fuck a flag!

  • I'm so proud that these un-American libretards got what they deserve actually they deserved more harsher punishments but I'm happy something was done to protect the integrity of the United States of America

  • fuck you. who gives a shit. its our right, and if we dont practice it, its just another one of our rights for the government to take away from us

  • Apparently not these people got arrested an so shall you if you attempt to reenact their misdeeds

  • I think they should have gotten something harsher, but not because they were burning an american flag. I think they have every right to burn an american flag, but to burn someone elses property, and to do it in such a potentially destructive way without any regard for other's safety, they should be punished rather severely for that.

  • "it's not an inanimate object" fuckwit

  • Answer me this:

    Why is it okay to burn the American flag but illegal to pick poppies? (California)

  • because burning the flag is right. addicting people to heroin is wrong

  • Poppies arent used only for that the muffins are illegal too. Any your un-American for saying that go live in North Korea.

  • the muffins are legal fag

    fuck the government ill live here if i want so go eat shit

  • Poppies are the state flower possesing them are a crime.

    All flag burners must be hung

  • you should eat some babies and mind your own business if i wanna fuckin burn a flag i will, try to hang me and shits gonna hit the fan

    and btw i use your state flower to get high, bitch.

  • No I dont kill babies like you do at the abortion clinic I'll feed you the blood on your hands you heathen

  • Your god is the state. There is nothing special about a piece of cloth. It is the liberty that matters.

  • fuck religion you piece of shit. if a lady doesnt wanna squeeze a bowling ball sized baby head outta her vag thats her fucking choice. go die

  • So you're attesting that between a parent and their child, the parent is the only one that has a "choice", the parent has the right to end the life of their child? For someone who doesn't like religion you sure like to play God.

  • It's funny how you assume that I'm religious... you just made yourself look like a retard in one post

  • you called me a heathen. suck it douche bag

  • Apparently these people just sucked it

  • She should have a choice, yes, and every time she chooses to have sex, she is making that choice, abortion is murder and should be illegal in all but hte most extreme cases.

  • its not murder, simply because the fetus is not a human being.... very much like when a dog gets killed its not murder. u sir are a religious idiot! not to mention ur precious bible does not really mention abortion, funny a all knowing jesus would leave that out, along with child abuse torture ect....

  • Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee,. ..

    Jeremiah 1:5 - you then need to add thou shalt not kill to this verse.

    Before you mock Christianity to perhaps you should do a little research.

    As far as the rest of your rants on

    America - you are entitled to your ridiculous, ignorant opinion.

    God Bless

  • Haha! i love this!

  • NO OFFENSE, but I was always wondering why americans do have the US flag at almost every building. Who can be proud to be american? It is a random thing. You cannot be proud to be born in america. You could also be from Germany, Danmark or whatever.

    I also think, america isn't a SO glorious country and this is even less reason to be proud of america / the USA.

  • so you're saying that wherever you are born and raised, and grew up, you should have no reason to be proud of your upbringing and your country?

    I'm proud to be American, but yeh, if i was born in Germany, i'd be a proud German too.

  • Comment removed

  • HYDER AKBAR IS MY COUSIN AND HE IS NOT IN ANYWAY LINKED TO THE TALIBAN. Such bullshit and racism!

  • yea and dont tell me buring the flag in not an act to show anti-america. extremely smart to do it to an wooden house as well

  • Comment removed

  • BURN ANOTHER FLAG! It's called a protest conservatives, just like the Boston Tea Party, one of the founding elements of the country. They said fuck Britain, we say fuck the United States. Jesus Christ get over yourselves..

  • omg this kid should be deported whethere he is a citizen or not. end of that

  • Haha deported?

    To where?!

  • yea. forcibly removed from this country. and to where? who gives a fuck, his choice. thats way beyond the point. He is anit-american, but yet lives here to take advantage of the resources, education, opportunity, everything, the country. now thats contradicting. it is one thing to be ani-gov and still love or appreciate the country, but its another thing to anti-american. its as ingorant as being prejudice. hes not a kid anymore and should live up to his actions and what he preaches/beleives,

  • Yeah, I come from Britain and we have the same problem here, I read in the papers that a large group of Muslims were protesting army marches and it angers me, they say they want England to be an Islamic state.

    They travel to our country, take advantage of our health system, political protection, everything...Then they protest agaisnt the core of our country.

    Then I see systems fail and it's because of the huge amount of people using them.

    Immigration is a huge problem...

  • Comment removed

  • the supreme court ruled that one of our nation's founding documents protects flag burning, So the freedom to burn a flag is pretty american.

  • to anewrevolution:

    i would burn the flag no matter what whether it was legal, illegal, in an amendment, or not. the more people that get pissed at you, the more fun it is.

  • i agree with day dreamer

  • dumbasses...the flag is our reminder of what people like my Garndfathers have paid!!!! They deserve more than what happened to them!!!!

  • . "Linked to the taliban" ??? what a stupid thing to say. this country is full of racists and hypocrites.

  • whoever disagrees isn't a real american..you sit there on american soil with freedom and riches when you could be stuck in the middle-east with no money held prisoner being tortured and you think that it's ok to dishonor, and disrespect the symbol of your country, regardless of what country it is, thats just messed up if you ask me.

  • But we arent in the middle east. Thats what I dont understand about this argument. In america, you can burn the flag. Why? I dont know.

    We have a free society. If a person wants to burn the flag to make a statement, the state can not stop them. Thats the very right that soilders have died to protect, our right to speech.

    I think its wrong to burn our flag.I think it would be more wrong to make it illegal.

  • Land this chimp in Gaza with an AK47.....

    Videotape the Israelis hunting him down like in "THE RUNNING MAN" and sell tickets and PPV.

    Hopefully he runs into a Kindergarten and we get our money's worth.

  • he got a slap on the wrist (shouldnt have even gotten THAT)

    because it isnt a crime.

    fucktards.

  • arson is a crime

  • yay, captain obvious.

  • torrent, you are a bit confused. you said that he shouldn't have gotten the slap on the wrist. He should have got attempted murder, for trying to burn down the families home WITH THEM IN IT.

  • oh-hooo-oh-ha-aw-oh-ooo-ah

    *slaps knees spasticly*

    lulz

  • They should of sent that bitch to Guantanamo Bay.

  • They should have taken a shit on it first.

  • it was out side of the house

  • Just shut the fuck up fox news

  • If there was no political motivation then they were just having a bit of fun...people who mess around, even patriots, do things like this...

  • whats wrong with burning their flag and goes to jail?

  • fixed noise

  • burn more please........

  • ...its just a flag ffs.

  • You are all missing the crucial point.

    Even though it is widely considered immoral to burn an American flag, it is STILL NOT ILLEGAL.

    It is completely wrong for the judge to judge it differently because it's an American flag.

  • thats retarded if u burn the american flag u shld beat be over the head seriously so they are saying it wldnt be as bad if they burnt the american flag in the presidents office or outside the whitehouse

  • It's a rag dumbass.
