om...
The 2012 baseball season is upon us. Thought it would be nice to
remember the greatest play ever made:

ooops make that 2013.
Flag burning is completely legal since 1990 or something like that. It
is protected free speech.

I am sure you noticed, the incident in the link happened in 1976.
But, it's still a shame in my opinion that it's "legal" now. Another
example of the moral decay of this country.
There are some things that shouldn't need laws to make them
unacceptable behavior. We now live in a society where college
presidents encourage and actually *teach* courses in challenging all
authority and/or established traditional values. It's no wonder we
are evolving into a society of people that demand rather than earn.
I guess it depends on your morals. My morals state that freedom of
speech is more important that some subset of the population's morals.
SCOTUS seemed to agree, and they are a pretty "moral" crowd.
Without someone to defend your freedom of speech, it is just words on a piece of paper.
Challenging authority is a good thing. Isn't that what the right wing
is always preaching... keeping guns at the ready for the government
takeover that will be happening next Thursday... ****. Don't tell
anyone.
What's that got to do with the legality of burning a flag? Nothing,
but what you said sure sounds good rattling around in your tiny brain.
