Burning the American flag is a violation of the rights of the American people. We have the right to have our flag respected like the flags of all other nations. The American flag is the symbol of dignity and pride for Americans.
Freedom does not mean abuses. It is humiliating to see our flag made into shoes, shirts, scarves, dresses, skirts, fans, etc., and it is humiliating to see the red, white and blue dumped in trash cans. I ask: How low is America going to go?
