While I am completely supportive of your movement and as someone who was involved in the 60’s as an activist the one thing I wish is that your movement not trod on the U S Flag! It is Congress, The President and The Major Corporations and Banks who need to be focused on! Disrespecting our flag just creates enemies out of you for some especially OLDER Americans! I admire what you are doing and respect it! I support your movement!
I agree with you 100%. This movement has real promise for positive change in the U.S., but if we allow the desecration of our flag, defecating on NYPD cars, trash pileups, and more to occur the whole thing will devolve into nothing more than gangs, and be treated as such.
And that will be a significant lost chance at real change.
