On April 25, 1976 at Dodger Stadium, Rick Monday of the Chicago Cubs, grabbed and secured the American flag from two muslims attempting to burn our flag in the middle of the playing field. It was an outstanding display of American Patriotism.

    Shame on the 28 that don’t like it.

    Great video and gesture on the part of Monday. Wonder whatever happened to the flag?

    @giramino there’s nothing out there I can find that confirms this. The father’s name was William Thomas, that’s all I see. How do you know this about them? Can you provide a source?

    I can only hope that the two white assholes are still rotting in some prison, in the company of Bubba, being led around on a leash and shared like the little bitches they are. Evidently their mother isn’t the only one with mental disorders……it must run in their family!

    @LukeBanda FYI two white Americans can be Muslim.

    I did not know about this event but I am glad to have watched it now. Rick Monday should have gotten the MVP for the year.
    I am angry though that these two fools were not pummeled afterwards.

    Hey sunny219, how about dirty, rat bastard, camel fucking,cock sucking muslims, is that better!

  9. sunny219 says:

    I guess the word “Muslims” is now a generic name of people who torch US flags!

    @randyjsing I read somewhere that they were protesting that the mother had been incarcerated in a mental institution or something. I really don’t know beyond that.

  11. LukeBanda says:

    @MrSuperGuava I did, mainly because the video description labels the two protesters as being Muslim, when in fact they were two white Americans.

  12. randyjsing says:

    It’s weird how there isn’t much history regarding why these fools tried to burn the flag. If they aren’t muslim then I don’t understand why there’s misinformation…it seems like there’s not enough info to conclude who these people were other than it was a father and a son…I’d like to know if someone can find more credible info on these two people. Way to go Rick Monday! I would’ve done the same thing.

    America has so many problems, and its hard to believe how things get worse every year. The hard working American seems to go no where. The American Dream to us is just a dream. One thing will always bring us together,,is our nations US Flag. Thanks Rick Monday for that act of Patriotism! You didn’t think, You just did it because it was the right thing to do. Our leaders need to learn how to to just that.

  23. boy1dr27 says:

    if you’re going to burn the flag, you might as well be labeled a muslim. Go ahead send me nasty commmnets, trash talk me, whatever. I DON’T CARE!!! I am a combat veteran, and damn proud to be an American. I know not all muslims are terrorists, but most terrorists ARE muslims.
