Flag wavers spit on the flag when it serves their interests

Re: “Civilisation can survive killers, but not traitors within”, Have Your Say, December 14.

If HHB believes being a traitor is such a terrible thing how does he feel about the fact that Harvard law professor Lawrence Tribe said Donald Trump might have committed treason by encouraging cyber war against his own country? Remember Trump said he wanted the Russians to find out information about Hillary Clinton’s emails. (No that 
wasn’t fake news – I heard Trump say that with my own ears).
I have had a belly full of all these rightwing hypocrites who always wrap themselves in the American flag yet won’t hesitate to spit on everything the flag represents when it serves their interests to do so.
