Court on Capital Punishment

I truly don’t understand what the people of this country are about any more. The Supreme Court’s decision regarding burning the flag, a piece of fabric that symbolizes freedom and justice, has every “patriot” and all of Congress frantic. Yet, when the court decides it’s all right to execute teen-aged and mentally retarded human beings, there’s barely a stir. Can someone please explain?
