Bikers defending the American Flag from being desecrated.

Bikers, many of which are veterans, intervened and chased away anti-cop, flag burning protesters.

I happen to support the actions of my fellow veterans and bikers.

I know we defend freedom of speech, but I personally feel that desecrating our FLAG should be an illegal act.

Weenies burn flag to protest cops, get attacked by bikers, need cops to save their asses

Now they probably love the cops. A group of flag-burning anti-NYPD protesters needed New York’s Finest to save their skin from a gang of angry bikers who tried to pummel them in a Brooklyn park for...

Outstanding!...“They lit the f–king flag and took off running once they got slapped once or twice.”

I said this about George Zimmerman: if you’re going to go out at night and pretend to be Batman, you should learn how to take a hit. Likewise, for these cowards, if you’re going to go to a public place and burn my flag, you need to be prepared for the ass-kicking.

Really, I’m glad no one was too hurt (despite deserving it), I’m really glad the flag was liberated, and no one got charged with assault. Well done, Hallowed Sons Motorcycle Club.

While I support the action, I do support them starting any of the violence...ending the violence, yes but starting it no. Additionally, I do have an issue with the guy in the picture with no shirt and leather vest...IF you do make that fashion choice, please spend some time in the sun before hand.

Cpl Anthony Pearson I'm a biker, so I have to support my fellow brothers and sisters that ride, as long as they just run them off and don't create additional violence.

With biker friends I know that most are standup people and I support this totally.

I support the First Amendment, but I also support the right of all Americans to kick the shit out of assholes. Way to go bikers and vets!

Freedom of speech doesn't apply! Everyone needs to stop saying that! Not a democracy burning the Red White and Blue Be vigilant this weekend! Look for haters and take action! That is all.

So your concept of freedom is based on what you believe should be legal or illegal?

While I am opposed to their action, I am wholeheartedly in agreement with their sentiment. The reason I don't agree with the actions is simple. The protestors were not breaking the law and even if they were it is not the responsibility of the bikers to correct that. I think those protestors were wrong, but I don't have to agree with someone for them to have their rights.

I believe in freedom of speech,freedom of expression. That having been said, as an American and a soldier I believe in defending the flag. I voted in favor of intervening. I would. There are other ways to protest against the government without burning or stepping on the flag. Just my 2cents worth.

Freedom of Expression does not equate to Freedom from Repercussions

No sympathy for those that burn the Flag

That type of activity is NOT speech, so it is NOT protected under that amendment. If they wish to say something I will defend their right to freedom of speech, otherwise NO WAY.
