Let's pass the amendment . . .

Tell me this one thing. Why an amendment? Why not just pass a law? That's way easier to get passed than an amendment.

Oh, that's right. A law would be found unconstitutional because it violates the First Amendment. Nevermind.

Some poeple just don't think things through.

Pot meet kettle.

"Oh, that's right. A law would be found unconstitutional because it violates the First Amendment. Nevermind."

Banning flag burning doesn't violate the First Amendment, except to those who interpret it to the extreme. I think the amendment is just a good way of promoting respect for such a significant symbol for America like our flag.

But please don't bother to reply with more of your contentious words, because it's clear we just don't agree on this issue.
