U.S. Supreme Court Upholds Flag Burning as Protest
How inane the reasoning of five Supreme Court justices when they rule that flag burning is just another “expression” of free speech as protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution.

Let’s find a way to protect the Stars and Stripes forever.
