“it’s impossible for that to happen in their country.”

Uh, yeah? It’s also impossible for democracy and democratic ideals to happen in their countries. I don’t think I get his point.

When flag burning eventually does happen in one of those countries it will be a visible sign of regime change. In the US, I’d like to think that political change is possible without requiring the entire constitution be re-written.
