Although I personally will never burn a flag of any kind, especially the American flag, if we make flag burning a crime it infringes upon the rights of the people. The first Amendment protects symbolic speech, one could argue it is a form of discrimination towards those who fought for our country, and I personally think it should be illegal, BUT I cannot betray the constitution, however Amendments are AMENDments for a reason, we should go through the long and vigorous process to fix this; another reason I believe it should be this way is because, if it were an LGBTQ flag or BLM flag or RELIGIOUS flag, which i support all of these; then people would rule that burning them is a hate crime or a form of discrimination towards those people.
