Re: Flag Burners
Karthik,
Although I too think it is deplorable that your friend's friend is proud of having burned a flag for a protest, I would encourage you to remember what you have learned about GP. He obviously never learned - because GP says there are better ways to get your point across that don't involve bashing.
You don't have to be friends with this person, and you don't have to hide your feelings. But you do have to act politely whenever you should find yourself around him, if only for the sake of the girl you are dating. She has to consider your feelings as well, and should avoid creating social situations where you and the flag-burner will be forced into uncomfortable situations.
