You don't burn a cross on your own lawn, Michael. You burn it on someone else's lawn.

Here's a book that should help you understand what cross-burning is all about:

Michael, you may have a First Amendment right to burn a cross or a flag on your own lawn, IMHO, but be willing to suffer the consequences - it's clearly a violation of the same laws that prohibit bonfires. I can't burn a bonfire in my yard, and I'll bet you can't either.
