Make burning the flag illegal? Another case of preferring symbolism to substance. Something often seen in those of certain political persuasions.

Burning the flag is a form of speech. Protected speech. Just like running issue ads during a campaign.

I believe that the campaign funding legislation recently passed will be overturned by the Supreme Court. As they would also do to any silly legislation trying to make flag-burning illegal.
