There is no need for this amendment. Not because the Supremes did something wrong, but because they were right. If someone wants to buy an American flag and burn it on their own property, I can see no reason on Earth why I should have any say in the matter. Now, if it's not their flag, or if it's done in such a fashion as to be a public hazard due to fire, that can be handled by existing laws.

"There is all the difference in the world between defending the right to desecrate the flag and defending flag desecration itself. It is the difference between a free and an unfree society."
