flag burning is illegal in tons of democracies from Israel,Argentina,Turkey,India,South korea etc. with prison sentences much longer than one year.The left and fake libertarians and marxists etc like to find all sort of freedoms in the constitution that are not there. They love to invent them though, in more masculine countries you would get an ass kicking and be put in jai\l. I love how Marxists love to use freedom of speech as an excuse to burn the flag and in most marxist counties you dont have freedom of speech,dissent,the right to vote, free press etc
WTF is a "more masculine country?"

To borrow a notion from the right, if you think they do it better in Russia, please, feel free to go there.
Your argument makes no sense, as you are praising these countries for their protection of their flags, even as you criticize them for their lack of freedom.
The president-elect made this an issue, not the people on city-data.
Oh, I know. I'm just amazed that this has garnered so much attention (my own included), when there really are more pressing issues at hand. It's an emotionally charged question, and those are always more compelling than conversations about actual policy.
After much thought on the subject, I've come to the realization that taking away an American's citizenship and deporting them is undoable in this day and age. Britain had a similar problem when they chose to deport all criminals who had any crime, from stealing a loaf of bread, to murder. The only way to solve the problem of where to put them was to find an unoccupied continent or at least one where the inhabitants didn't have modern weapons. Australia fit the bill nicely.
Unfortunately for Trump's plan, there are no more empty continents and no country will accept entry of a stateless American.
Let's try being offended by Takei's follow-up tweet, asking Twitter to revoke Trump's account. So much for freedom.
Burning the flag, odious though it is, happens to be a protected means of expression; Trump should know that.
What DOESN'T surprise me are the left's trained seals, barking that Takei is right, and joining that stunning hypocrite's quest to shut him down.
Way to go, Liberals. You haven't learned a thing.
On the one hand, I hope Trump's Twitter account is left alone. Its an excellent primary source for his stupid, narcissistic ranting.
On the other hand, I feel that some of his tweets could affect national and international relations in a negative manner.
