Banning flag burning is a bad idea. Any law is in some way about restricting freedom, as those unnamed freedoms in our documents are ours to being with. As for it being "freedom Republican style," I dunno--Is abortion the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness democrat style?
Burning is the proper way of destroying an old and tattered flag. That would change. As far as some punks burning on the street, I say let them do it and get an A$$ whipping that they deserve!
Smarter vote would be to make the tax cuts permanent. Either way Kerry votes (for, against, abstain), he loses.
