Title: Trump denounces flag burning

Although the Supreme Court has declared flag burning to be a constitutionally protected form of free speech, Donald Trump said Tuesday he still wants to make the practice illegal.

"Nobody should be allowed to burn the American flag," the president-elect tweeted Tuesday. "If they do, there must be consequences — perhaps loss of citizenship or year in jail!"

It's not known what inspired Trump's condemnation of flag burning, or whether he will call on Congress to attempt a new law banning it.

While the Supreme Court has upheld flag burning, Trump will have at least one appointment to that body and has a chance to alter the court's ideological direction.

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

If flag burning ever becomes illegal, all protesters need do is create mock US flags... flags with one extra stripe, a missing star, one color slightly off, or maybe incorrect proportion of hight vs width. Just enough to legally disqualify it as a legal flag, and burn that. It'll look real enough on the street while it burns, but be completely legally defensible, with or without a Constitutional amendment.

Banning flag burning is a waste of time. People need to learn to deal with it as an activity that harms no one.

"Banning flag burning is a waste of time."

Yep. That's why my solution is to not prosecute the actions of those offended. Short of murder.
