20. I think protest flag burning is counterproductive. |

IMHO your friend is right in that most Americans view flag burning as a message of hating America AND Americans. I don't agree that the flag is "sacred" but I think most "average" Americans do view it as sacred. I am very much an advocate for keeping burning a flag legal - but IMHO doing so in front of a camera is incredibly stupid.
