I can't agree that flag burning rejects the freedom represented by the flag. It is generally a protest against the policies of our government. Expressing a freedom is not a rejection of that freedom.

If this gets to court, the "burning a venerated object" thing will probably be ruled unconstitutional. I'm sure he'll get slapped on the drunk and disorderly and criminal damage stuff.

This kid's parents amaze me, too. I have to agree with Maleficient. He's a high school dropout and he's getting drunk and destroying property. WTF? His parents seem completely unfazed by this.
