Flag burning should be illegal but why do we need a Constitutional Amendment for it?
Protecting traditional marriage is far greater in importance with an Amendment but our wimp no guts pols seem to avoid it like the plague.

An amendment would be needed because previous Supreme Court cases have ruled that making laws against flag desecration is unconstitutional.

The flag burning issue is fascinating. It's like a logic problem that can't be solved.

On one side you're limiting free speech/expression in order to preserve the symbol that stands for free speech and expression.

On the other side, you're expressing yourself in an extreme manner by destroying the symbol that allows you the freedom of such extreme expression.

We shouldn't need a Constitutional Amendment.

Nor should we need a Constitutional Amendment for English being our official language and singing it in ENGLISH!
