It’s ok to burn a flag if it’s your flag. It’s illegal to take someone else’s flag and burn it.
The act of burning the flag = protected speech.
Stealing something worth 10 bucks = misdemeanor crime.

Because the DA is a Soros stooge and the police care about keeping their jobs and pensions. They are not on our side and I no longer back the blue. They have chosen to side with the DNC, Antifa and BLM.
We are on our own.

Compare to destroying a historic statue.
