My Two Cents: Flag Burning

I know I'm little late on this issue this year but better late then never. I did not support the constitutional ban on flag burning. I do believe it is a first amendment protected activity. I don't see myself burning the flag in protest, but that doesn't mean I want to take that right from someone else. I do support burning the flag as the proper way to dispose of an old tattered flag. Old Glory is mistreated everyday, worn tattered flags hanging in a rainstorm is not showing the proper respect it is due. Also the flag isn't suppose to be used on clothes or as advertisment but it is everyday. I believe that proper flag handleing should be taught in civics class and that everyone of us should do our best to make sure the flag is treated with respect.
