The Ferguson protester didn’t burn down any stores on Saturday (so far) but they did torch the American flag.
Because justice for Mike Brown or some such sh*t.

Now there’s video of the flag burning and rescue making the rounds.
BizPac Review reported:
”Just so you know, the Guardsmen have come over to look for pieces of the American flag that got burned,” the officer tells the man holding the camera, identified in the video as RebelutionaryZ.
RebelutionaryZ didn’t get it – or pretended not to.
“It’s a piece of cloth,” he said, sounding like a standard high school sophomore – or graduate student in progressive politics.
“It means something to us,” a guardsman said.
