Flag Burning

I feel that there should not be an amendment prohibiting desecration of the flag. It has been taught to burn a flag when it gets too old. Whether it’s burning a flag because of its physical appearance, or burning a flag protesting a war, this act should remain legal. It is a right of free speech. A case that proves this is Texas vs. Johnson, where the Supreme Court issued that burning the flag is protected under the Constitution. Sure, if someone burned a flag in front of a crowd, someone would want to, or actually become hostile towards the person burning the flag, but nobody has the right to inflict any type of abuse on a person for simple expressing him/her self.
