Then why did President Trump see fit to make it illegal? Something isn't quite adding up here. 🤔

This will be good for the economy. Many Flags will now be burned in spit of Trump. So new flags will be purchased.

a) It's not the first time it's been called for from both sides, e.g. Hillary Clinton also wanted to pass a law banning flag burning.
b) American citizens will always be protected by the first amendment.
c) Clearly this will targeted at non-citizens and especially illegal aliens.

I can see it being generally illegal to burn anything in areas from a safety standpoint, but to be specific to one object is bullshit and a sign of a weak society

AI Overview
Flag burning is generally protected as symbolic free speech under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution,
A right established by the Supreme Court in landmark cases like Texas v. Johnson (1989) and reaffirmed in United States v. Eichman (1990).
individuals can still be prosecuted for burning a flag if the act takes place in a location where setting fires is prohibited,
Although President Trump issued an executive order on August 25, 2025, attempting to ban flag burning, this order and any attempt to criminalize the act are in direct defiance of the Supreme Court's rulings
Supreme Court's rulings, which hold that the government cannot prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds it offensive.

Wouldn't it be better to make burning anything in public areas illegal (on fire safety/environmental grounds) and then just selectively enforce it against the people burning the appropriate flag(s)?

Adding that I have only tasted Penis ejaculate after going down again on partner. So it's a mix. Just have never brought myself to taste my own product directly.

> The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and Black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or Black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and Blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.
Reminds me of this. It's just another way to target people they'd otherwise have no ability to target.

Obviously to illustrate my point. Why does it trigger you so much? Don't you like it when other people with the power to create and repeal laws behave like the bad orange man?
