Sound, I still like Rehnquist's dissent though: (paraphrase) "There's no essential difference between flag burning and an inarticulate grunt, not used to express any particular idea, but to antagonize others"

I am curious though, was the intent on protesting Reagan or was it to antagonize?

The Pledge of Allegiance should be replaced in schools with a morning flag burning.

That would be impossible.

Sad thing, he used to be a rather good poster.  Not that he was ever 100% libertarian or anything, but he didn't provoke people like he does now.
