    Nobody should be allowed to burn the American flag - if they do, there must be consequences - perhaps loss of citizenship or year in jail!

        the Constitution never mentions flag burning. Arson is a crime, not speech.

        What if it is your own flag? An image of the flag? The issue is speech (and the Court has spoken).

        inciting violence and acts of terror already have laws in place. It's a power grab plain and simple.
