Vince,
I thought it was made illegal for Americans to burn their own flag in 1968. Should I be upset?
No way. At least not in a way that passed constitutional muster.
Thanks for the clarification, Randall
It's deemed protected political "speech" (expression). The U.S. is near-absolute in its interpretation of the the free speech protections in our constitution. Which I support--for humans.
It's always a problem , drawing that wretched line ;-) And it's always a dilemma, burn the flag, or stop global warming.
