Flag Burning


Flag burning. One of the biggest insult that you can give to an American citizen, and yet it can be excused by the First Amendment, the Freedom of Speech.
Although flag burning is a very rude and racial act to Americans, I think it can still be excused as a part of Freedom of Speech. If flag burning becomes illegal, saying racist words will also become illegal. This really might sound awkward, but these racist words and acts exist because of Freedom of Speech. Using these words and acts can sometimes give energy to people, and might be a part of prayer from a religion. If flag burning becomes illegal, many religions and human rights can get taken away since other racists words and acts must get illegal as well. Although flag burning is a very rude, childish, and unforgivable act, we must grit our teeth and just take it. Just say this in your mind, "We didn't do any thing, they're just being idiots" and don't even care about them.
