Succint, yet stupid. What were your reading comprehension scores again? The Flag Code deals with the
proper means of destroying a flag. The Amendment deals with "desecration" of the flag.
In other words, it outlaws not the act itself, but the act and an intent which is
not sacred. So, in addition to laying to waste a 200 plus year old tradition of freedom of speech, the proposed Amendment does so in the language of religion.
Were it not so fucking chilling, the irony would be delicious.
eta that it appears that there is a general consensus that your interpretation may have missed the boat. Nice view in that glass house, stupid?
