Video: Hopkins on throwing the PR flag down

[Lights0ut]

Bernard Hopkins publicist cut that line off quickly once things got hot.

[Brother Naazim]

Yea, because americans are so easy going on flag burners or anything anti american.

Again, you assume to know what the reaction would be of an entire Nation regarding an incident that never happened.

Desecrating the flag is an act of protected speech under the first Amendment.

People do it all the time at protests and it hardly even gets a raised eyebrow these days, this isn't the 1940's.

[Abstraction]

Why would we bomb a Country that we own?

It seems the "Bush" thing to do, and something some Patriots would justifiy

Nobody would justify bombing a Country for disrespecting our flag. Do you have any idea how many Countries would be smoldering ash heaps by now, if that were the case?

I'm sorry, I failed to realize that everybody in America (or even 1% of it) was posting in that thread.

get over it...cats dont even know what flags stand for...whether be it american or puerto rican

I was a Bernard fan, but when he threw the flag down I became a hater of his, eventually I came to respect him again, and became afan again. However, after hearing this which is ridiculous, I am not a fan anymore. What sense does it make to talk like this about the Puerto Rican people. Hopkins is no longer team Hopkins, he is part of Golden Boy promotions, and this serves no business purpose to promote GBP or himself. In fact, his Business Partner's wife and son are Puerto Rican so how is he going to make comments like this? Thats just stupid.
