What would you do if you saw someone in a parade ripping apart an American flag?
That happened at the BB parade in Chicago and it was televised on t.v. The police could do nothing because they said it was her 1st Amendment right.
She even went to the sidelines and encouraged young children to help her rip up the flag.
Something is wrong here.

Doesn't bother me....so I would just keep on walking.

Sorry, but what is a BB parade?

Freedom of speech. That is what makes our country great. I would just wave my flag more.

While I think it is disrespectable, I would just try to ignore the situation. There is nothing anyone can do and it isn't illegal.
Someone is looking for their 15 minutes of fame and wouldn't get it from me.

People are quick to forget that Freedom of Speech doesn't protect the speech that you like, it protects the speech that you don't like.

The police gave you the correct answer. It is a First Amendment right. Whether you or I like it, this is covered by the Constitution. I worked with a woman years ago, an American-born, a member of a religious group, whose religion forbade the saluting of the flag. I liked her very much and realized this was her right.
