So, as far as I can see, the only Bill of Right Trump hasn’t flat out, explicitly decided he can over turn by presidential decree is the third? Has anyone asked him if it would be okay to quarter troops on the population yet?
If we respect the flag so much, then apply the same penalties to those stupid Blue Lives matter flags, the flags with Trump’s ugly face on them, or any of the other MAGA crap that desecrates the flag.
/no, this is not serious, and no, burning a flag should absolutely not be a punishable offense
Yet I would gladly eat a flag myself, had I not used my intestine as a rope to hoist a flag made of my own skin, if it would protect the freedoms of the proud people who salute that flag.
The US flag code literally calls for the flag to be burned when it’s no longer fit to display:
The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.
Yes, but ceremoniously is the intent. I’ve done many flag retirements. These flag burnings he’s referring to are as a message, which is totally fine and protected by the constitution, but it isn’t dignified. It’s not supposed to be. It wouldn’t send the same message if it were.
