Burn an American Flag and you are exercising your Free Speech Rights.

Burn a Mexican Flag or a Rainbow Flag and you are committing a Hate Crime.

“Burn a Mexican Flag or a Rainbow Flag and you are committing a Hate Crime.”

No.

If you like, you can go out and buy a rainbow flag and a Mexican flag and burn theme both and you would not be charged with a hate crime.

Now, if you go onto someone else’s property and take their rainbow flag, Mexican flag or American flag and burn it, you would likely be charged with a crime.
