    I’ll get some flags with the wrong number of stars or stripes and burn them. I’ll also burn Confederate flags because fuck those traitors, and I’ll burn pictures of Pig Boy Trump and stick pins into bloated orange dolls.

    When a flag is so tattered that it can no longer serve as a symbol of the United States, it should be destroyed in a dignified manner, preferably by burning.

    What about if the country is so tattered?

    “The Attorney General shall prioritize the enforcement to the fullest extent possible of our Nation’s criminal and civil laws against acts of American Flag desecration that violate applicable, content-neutral laws, while causing harm unrelated to expression, consistent with the First Amendment” If I am reading this correctly, all the Trump enthusiasts desecrating a flag with their diesel exhaust while speeding/road rage/DUI should all be round up. So vague in wording not even describing what desiccating the flag means…

    I’d burn a flag in protest but it’s not worth the price of buying a flag

    Conservatives have the weirdest boner for flags, and against flagburning. A thing that almost never happens.

      This is likely to apply more to conservatives than anyone else. Slapping words on a flag? Desecration. Using it for advertising? Desecration. Adding symbols (like guns)? Desecration. It’s not going to be enforced like that, but the hypocrisy is real.

        The conservatives wallow in hypocrisy. These were the same assfucks that were calling themselves free speech absolutists, too.

        As usual, they are absolutely full of shit.

        I have the urge… to buy a bunch of Made in China flags… and do some arts and crafts.
