You have a point, but I grew up in a world where it was illegal to burn the flag, and we were way more free back then than we are now, so I don't think your point is completely valid. Destroying the symbol of your freedom is to destroy freedom itself. The only real people who want to destroy this symbol and take the action to burn it are the very same people that want to see this country fall, so I vote to ban American flag burning alltogether.
Just my 2 cents.
