      It is respectful not to boo when the US flag is shown. Western countries have been quite respectful in that regard. Countries bombed by the US or otherwise afflicted by US decisions however…

        Lol wut. People have burned the US flag in probably every country. Having respect for terrorists and the greatest threat to all life on earth is absurd

          Everybody is a terrorist to somebody.

          Get a large enough group of people, and you won’t find anything that at least one person doesn’t hate.

            Terrorist has a specific definition. Someone hated ghandi enough to murder him, but Ghandi was not a terrorist.
