What opinion? The opinion that the gov't is badly in error and needs to wake up. And saying that is covered by the 1st Amendment.

"None of which are included in the context of this discussion" They are all included. You keep insisting that burning the flag is treason. You ignore the fact that the flag is burned for an infinite number of reasons. Some as an act of Congress; others as a right to free speech. "A hundred trillion flies disagree about the eating dung stuff" Do they really? "What opinion?" There are an infinite number of opinions for burning a flag: retiring the flag at a boy scouts camp-out, protesting corruption in Government, and the violation of the Constitution by some Government pervert, deciding you wanted to leave the country and take another citizenship bcause you saw corruption and fascism being expressed? Of course, it is none of your business to question why? It is protected under the Constitution; and you have no business sneering at the Constitution.
