    Flag burning should be illegal.

    Same for Australia.

    I guess your entitled to your own opinion of course and i aint gonna take that right from yas. But i do have a question:

    Does everyone who trash their government have a viable working alternative. Its a serious question that needs a serious and well thought out answer.

    Things like "i would instigate free hash for kids" or "let kids under 18 drink alcohol" or "make love not war" aint gonna make it anymore - so whats the "NEW" plan you all have secretly stashed thats gonna change the world?

    Dont take this in a negative way, try to answer my question sensibly.

    Peace

    every1 has the right to express themselves in America.

    just like i have the right to express my foot in the face of the person burning the American flag.

    i understand it&#39;s just a "material", but many men fought and died under it to protect what it stands for - it is a representation and a symbol of our country&#39;s history. no need to desecrate it.
