This is a goofball amendment proposed by members of congress who want to look like they are doing something patriotic. But do we need this amendment? When is the last time you saw someone burning a US flag in the US? Will it stop terrorists from attacking the US? Would it have prevented 9/11? Will it stop foreigners from burning US flags in other countries? In fact all this does is to create new restricitons on the actions of American citizens.


Hopefully the Senate will stop it.

For those who are in favor of the amendment here's a suggestion: In the unlikely event you encounter someone burning a US flag, take his picture and then burn the picture. You will then have done as much harm to him as he did to America, zero!
