I am for flag burning being legal, because it's human rights. Why should we not be allowed to burn a flag? It's just freedom of expression. Personally, I will never burn a flag, because as a symbol, it represents a country, however what country can say their people are truly free when doing such a simply act as flag burning it considered a felony? It should be legal, but not preformed.
I don't believe that human rights should really apply to something like this, because then...I might as well apply human rights to shooting and eating a bald eagle, another national symbol. When I see the eagle, I see strength and honor, the same thing I see when I see the flag. There are a million different freedoms of expression that would offend a lot less people than burning a flag would. I know the "if you don't like it, then get out" phrase is overused, but it's a damn shame that people who have never had to suffer for our country can think they're being smart or making a point by burning a flag.
