The US flag is a symbol that represents this country and it's freedom. You'd rather desecrate the Constitution with an amendment that takes away a little freedom of speech. A flag burning amendment is anti-American.
François-Marie Arouet said "I disagree strongly with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
Agreed 100%. People can burn flags all they want; America was started with the idea that each person would be guarunteed a voice, the right to act, and the right to their own opinion. I get tired of people thinking that the US should only allow it's citizen's to wear smiles and give it compliments. That's not what the US was founded on.
Second, not wanting to amend the constitution so it bans flag burning is not the same as promoting flag burning.
