How about burning crosses, that okay?

I am continually puzzled by the false comparisons raised here. No one has suggested that flag burning is "okay". The only statement made in opposition is that flag desecration should not be criminally penalized.

I guess you're puzzled because most people would understand that not criminally prosecuting something means that someone has decided that the action is OK. If it weren't OK, then there would be criminal prosecution. By not prosecuting it, you're condoning it. Simple really.
