Don't Tread on Me

Today I saw a guy wearing a T-shirt that had an American Flag on it and the words, "Try and burn this flag, Asshole." He was wearing this T-shirt in broad daylight and in public.

The law student in me wanted to let the guy know that it's ironic that he both is and isn't a first amendment advocate.

The high school student in me realized that his T-shirt was an appeal for casual violence and I should just keep walking.

The high school student in me is always right (and he's a lot more fun at parties).
