The fun part is that according to the US Flag Code, burning is the preferred disposal method.
Just like how kneeling is the most respectful way to not stand for the national anthem.
But ... ya know ..... Black people
If it was Europe, the guy couldn't have burnt the flag in the 1st place /s
Technically, yes. But youre not supposed to just burn it whole. Youre supposed to literally rip it to pieces first.
Youre also not supposed to wear the flag as clothing, fly it in the rain, or at night. And while not explicitly stated, youre not supposed to fly it behind your car because it gets dirty and torn, which is reason to retire (burn) it.
