The Constitution CLEARLY says "freedom of Speach" NOT freedom of ACTIONS.
A liberal court made the ruling and "CREATED" a new definition of "speech"
To address your post, Many liberals are too ignorant about what our country is and have NO pride in it.
NO country is perfect.
Hopefully, one day when they grow up they will have different view of America.
Don't let them confuse you....
The constitution only chains down the government from reacting. It in no way restricts the people from reacting to anything said or displayed. That is the reason we are all to be armed and able to defend our words.
No, I don't need to look around more. The vast majority of people who vote democratic have never burned a flag and would never do so. Pssst. I vote democratic, and not only do I display the flag outside my house every day, I also respectfully stand at attention, put my hand over my heart, and recite the Pledge whenever occasion warrants it. There are 300-some million people in this country, at least a third of whom are declared Democrats. If this was really a trend, I wouldn't be able to walk down the street without seeing a burning flag, and I've never seen it happen in person. Where do you live around Democrats that this is an everyday occurrence?

The flag symbolizes the U.S. government or the establishment. By burning it, the globalist/collectivist far left burns a nationalist symbol. But its a good question OP -- the far right also stands against the government at times, but I don't get the impression that they try to get attention the same way.

I don't get that. To me the flag represents all of us; our country, our freedoms, democracy, liberty... all those things that we're supposed to love, not stomp on. Does DC have its own flag we could burn?
On a related note, I do understand flying the flag upside down.
I am surprised they didn't burn one on the stage at RNC. Since they had nothing good to say about the US, they might as well burn the flag to put the exclamation point to it.

The leaders of the party need to tell the people to stop doing it......the leaders happen to meet with these same people. Occupy Wall Street, BLM and others. I was not talking about your personal flag or experience. Republicans are not seen burning the flag and if they were they would be stopped.

By whom? Does the right have some sort of security detail that ensures every declared member of the party abides by flag code? And when's the last time any member of either of those protest organizations openly declared their allegiance to the Democratic party? They're protestors! I did not think this thread could get any more ridiculous, but you all keep proving me wrong.
