Looks like your not up to date on the law regarding the flag of the U.S.

Texas v. Johnson

In United States v. Eichman (1990), the Court once again upheld that flag burning was protected speech under the First Amendment, with the same five justices in Johnson forming the majority. In an opinion also written by Justice Brennan, the Court declared the Flag Protection Act of 1989 unconstitutional and overruled it. [73]

On July 20, 2016, Gregory Lee Johnson was again arrested for burning the American flag during the Republican National Convention, which was being held in Cleveland, Ohio. [80] Prosecutors dropped the charges in January 2017 and the city of Cleveland agreed to pay Johnson $225,000 in settlements. [81]
