		<description>I am opposed to this proposed amendment. I agree that the amendment is much to vague on the actual act that must take place to be considered a violation. More so, I can&#039;t think of too many major examples of symbolic speech that is protected.

More so, I agree that there are more important things to worry about here when as you mentioned the majority of flag burning happens out of our borders. I would much rather see one of our Marines dropkicking the idiot setting himself on fire trying to burn a flag in Pakistan than seeing somebody opposed to our government, burning a flag here and trying to make a real statement.

As far as I knew, it was &quot;wrong&quot; to wear any flags or use the flag in any way that wasn&#039;t formally done. So all of those lapel pins, penicls/pens, hats, MC pants, etc. are all bad anyways. That may just be hear-say though.</description>
