I interpreted
as blocking your driveway so you can't leave your property.

That's a separate issue than simply sitting at the end of my driveway.

Well, then you call the nice officers to come take the filthy hippies away. After properly applying the correct amount of capsaicin prewash rinse aid to said filthy hippies, of course. Studies have found that once you apply the prewash rinse, they are much more compliant when it comes time to wash them off with the hose.....
"Because that's the way it's always been" isn't good enough for me.
This is flat out stupid. And here I am, responding to you again.

Except the nice officers may or may not respond, depending on how pissed off their bosses will be by them restricting some filthy hippie's right to protest.
About flag burning: if they arrest them for burning without a permit, I'm okay with that. Whatever works and makes everybody feel good about themselves, like they're all compassionate and progressive and chit, yet effectively prohibits these stupid kindergarten outbursts. It's interesting that I can't smoke in a bar because it offends the oh so sensitive and they have rights, damn it! Yet some nozzle can burn stuff and block roadways, and somehow my rights...pffft, #### that. I was under the impression that we all had rights in this country, not just the permanently aggrieved.
Perhaps if we make burning the flag a criminal act, punishable by death, the mouth breathers will come up with a more mature and effective way to get their point across. I'd consider that a good enough reason.
This right here ^^^^^
And thank you - I had that in one of my brain recesses and it wouldn't come forward.
the right to stand on a street corner and speak critically of government without being jailed for speaking your mind.
we are already going down this road .... progressives are licking their lips in anticipation of enacting speech restrictions like are in place in Canada and Europe.
go ahead and write an 'anti' Gay or Muslim news article and see where you land .... look at college campuses - it is only a matter of time, until criticizing someone becomes have speech and you end up in jail

It is, and we agree on that. However, I wouldn't tolerate people loitering around my front yard, even if on public property, in an effort to protest me or my family. It does get to a point where it becomes a huge distraction and an infringement on my privacy. I would simply have the cops remove them; but certainly no criminal charges.
Why would the cops remove them if they're not committing a crime?

The cops wouldn't do anything, and I think this comes from me knowing what's at the end of my driveway, and you knowing what's at the end of yours, but neither of us know about each other's. (Hope that made sense
)If they want to sit at the end of my driveway and act childish, they'll have to chant a bit louder than my 75dB leaf blower BBBRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA as hats and burnt flags go flying everywhere. Then I'd water the flowers around my mailbox. I have high water pressure so sometime the hose may take on a mind of its own and spray the living #### out of everyone. It happens.
MY question as well.

No, you are flat out stupid. You next post proves it. Do you know how many times MLK was arrested? You really ought to look it up. Ghandi, yeah, you need to look that one up too."Because that's the way it's always been" isn't good enough for me.
