Neither more nor less

Flag burning was an East Village tradition . For as long as we can remember in this part of town in our public park , Tompkins Square Park , the Flag was burned pretty much as often as not . Recent events though seem to indicate a change of attitudes in the matter of handling the Flag .

The new downtown crowd doesn't seem to share the traditional attitude toward the Flag . As above on election night the Flag was displayed ; not burned but sung to .

According to Slum Goddess local Slacktivists may take us back at least one more time to the ways of yore this Saturday night in TSP .
