I am pretty sure you are wrong, you see whenever the flag is in combat that piece of fabric is defended, not the symbol or what it stands for but the fabric itself, and I can assure you that US military personal have been killed just making sure that the enemy did not get their hands on said fabric.
As to an amendment to keep it from being burned, well I think our lawmakers should be doing usefull things with their time and our money, like throwing every illegal border crosser out of this country, stopping welfare and making those lazy bastards cut grass for my money.
