I can not tell for sure but it looks like a group of American teachers has gotten together for a good old fashioned Flag burning. It might be a group of Berkeley liberal elitists but it is hard to tell because they are not sipping lattes.
Quite possibly this is a meeting of the DNC but, once again, it is difficult to tell because Howard Dean is not visible screeching like an owl. It is likely that this is a group of Muslims burning an American Flag.
It is a shame when the above mentioned groups can not be ruled out in this kind of photograph (which came in a Huffington email).
