While I believe in freedom of speech, and freedom of expression are two of our contries greatest assets, I honestly feel upset that this teacher chose to actually burn our flag right there to prove a point. He could have easily taken footage photos from our history and showed those photos to the class. At a bare MINIMUM, considering that people may get offended by such a thing, he should have sent a letter home to the parents of his students, leting them know of his intentions. ALSO he should then have notified the schools administration, to ensure safety was considered. I mean hell, they send home a letter every time the school might show a movie clip or something of the sort that is PG-13 or greater, when my daughter is in school. I applaude his conviction to drive a point home, but disagree with his methods.
