Why some like to see a flag protection amendment in the constitution?
A flag protection amendment is not needed. First, of all the Supreme Court found that using the flag as part of a protest was freedom of speech and in 1943 a bill was passed that stated a person didn’t have to salute, stand, or pledge allegiance to the flag if it went against their political beliefs. THIS IS HOW FREEDOM OF SPEECH WORKS. The recent discussions about the flag and “honoring “ it is a phony argument. We either have free speech or not. If we don’t then the first amendment has been thrown out. Frankly, I don’t want see the extreme action of loosing freedom of speech or press. Once that is gone so is our democracy.
