Burning the Flag


            Recently in class we have been discussing the issue of burning the American flag. I am personally biased that burning the flag should not be legal. This is due to what the flag stands to me personally. The flag to me stands for freedom but also the people who have lost their lives in wars supporting this county. Burning the flag is showing disrespect to everyone who lost their lives for the freedoms they fought for. I do also believe though people should have a freedom of speech, symbolic or vocal. While I do not approve of burning of the flag, if that is how people want to express their beliefs they should be entitled to do so.
