| Message | Thinking Aloria's not perfec is not the same as burning the symbol of our nationality! If you let them burn the national flag, then why don't let them burn our monuments and mmorials as well...??? |

| Message | The Alorian flag symbolizes our Republic and our free capitalist system! To do ban something that is just a form of expression does not fit into Aloria's values, nor the values of any free nation. Besides, the Alorian Boy Scouts "desecrate" flags all the time in "honorable" discharge ceremonies for our nation's military men and women. The only difference is the thoughts of the people who perform the act. Let us not go down this slippery slope, you must understand. |
