Counselors, my question is this:
I have heard libs say that one cannot "steal" a flag because the flag belongs to all the people. I think that is what they are planning for their defense in order to make headlines.
Is this valid?

BTW, for those that don't know. Same same bridge where a Muslim tango shutup a van full of kids a few years ago.

No. A flag is a chattel and it can be converted or trespassed upon.

Apparently the protestors are messing with the NYC emergency services (police, etc) radio bands or something. Something called C-Block.

Yes, it is. It is also considered durable, non-expendable property.
I have paid for one which my unit misplaced.

I met a gentleman today in the Financial Aid office of my college. He was wearing commo pants, and was talking about his GI bill to a clerk. I waited until he was finished talking, stuck out my hand and said thank you for your service. He shook my hand, looked me up and down and replied that no one ever says that any more. With pride he stood erect, and I asked him what branch of service he was in? He replied, United States Army ma'am". Big smiles all around from me!
As I looked at his shirt, I saw an American Flag on it, big as day.
Now I dont know about the laws, but I have a feeling that if someone was to attempt to steal that shirt, or a flag for that matter, from him? They would be mushed!
GO ARMY MEN!!! :)

"commo pants" Is that what RL wears when he tries to hook that camera up? I wonder if you can see them?

Damn NDD you have to give me more warning than that, damn near spilled my iced tea all over my key board. This conjures up all sorts of problems related to RL making commo while wearing his commo shorts. You know like "ED" Electronic Disfunction, Short circuit, improper grounding, trying to communicate with a half wave length antenna when it required a full wave length, etc, etc.:D
