Welcome to Big Boards. Big Boards at one time offered the Zathyus network our long famous Resource Archives, our extensive search indexes, and our info-packed resource forums. Eventually, these were made redundant by upgrades to the documentations and expanded search features added to the ZetaBoards software, and this forum then lost relevancy and subsequently became inactive.

Our team then embarked on a new project called Planet Nexus, where a bold new experiment in forum promotion is taking place. We call it nexworking. NexusTree offers social networking pages for forums in a fully automated format. Your NexusTree page is created instantly when your join the nexus. Find out more by visiting Planet Nexus, and become part of the nexworking revolution.

Apparently, the Democrats dumped over 12,000 Amercan flags in the garbage after the convention.....

Surely they could have found some veterans group or something to give them to.

That is sad :(
Though I agree with one commenter, that throwing out a flag doesn't mean you're not patriotic. A flag is a piece of cloth. If you're publicly burning it or something then it's not the flag your against its the symbol, when you throw out a bunch of flags you're neither against the flag nor what it stands for... just stupid.

There are appropriate ways to destroy the flag. Garbage bags is not one of them. Somebody's head ought to roll over this one.

I find it almost more disgusting that they made this big hoo-haw over having a "green" convention, and then trashed the flags which could have been easily recycled.
