I don't think it takes much to see my opinions on the war, but I'm throwing in my chips with you.
Booing the anthem? What, is that some kinda stupid joke? As if their hockey players (many Canadians and Eastern Europeans...) declared war on Iraq? Bloody stupid.
Burning their flag? Crissakes. I don't like full half the places that flag's found its way to, but it still stands for a lot of decent and good things. I'm the first person to defend your basic flag burner, but burning someone ELSE'S flag? Bah. There's protest, there's symbolism, and then there's just plain old stupid.
