Good for these people, make them charge you, make them have a grand jury charge you.
A grand jury won't bring charges on sandwich guy and they won't on this either.
The fucking boy scouts burn flags, American flags.

Burn the Confederate flag.
Y'all want to burn some flags in DC this Monday? I'm game
It's not illegal to burn the flag. Any flag.
And executive orders are not laws.
More confederates should have had their heads blown off instead of lukewarm acceptance back into the union
Some say that the war would have lasted longer and guerrilla campaigns continues and more martyrs... but I say fuck em' hard. That type of shit deserves nothing. All the plantations should have been split snd given to armed black farmers that are under federal protection with extremely stringent gun control on the south for a few decades to prevent an uprising.
The Radical Republicans wanted to put General Sherman in charge of Reconstruction. That would have been cool.
How can you make an executive order like that? That’s not exactly an order.
That would need to be a law, passed by Congress.
This dude has gone so fucking nuts with executive orders left and right out the ass, that no one is even asking wtf? It’s not supposed to be the magical “I can do anything” card. But everyone is ok with this I guess…
It doesn't matter, Trump can legally do whatever he wants, he's a king. 1/3rd of the population of America believes that Trump can rule unilaterally. The other 2/3rds are scared of the first and they should be. Trump and MAGA have the executive branch, the judicial branch, the legislative branch, the armed forces, law enforcement, immigration enforcement, and wall street in their side. They only group not on Trump's side is the general public and it should be pretty obvious now that he doesn't have any use for the general public. Trump won. He's king of The United States of America, I suggest you start to think about what you're going to do about it.
Yeah, you know, except the general public does all the things that keep the country working.
Not saying a nationwide strike is easy, or even doable, but a week of that would have Wall Street power brokers contacting mercenary outfits for pricing on a presidential assassination.

Both congress and the Supreme Court handed ceded all their power to the executive branch. We have a dictator now, full stop. This country is run by the whims of a pedophile protecting (at best), rapist, criminal (convicted, not punished - REWARDED).

Where can I contribute to the legal fund?
Guy was already released actually
The wrongful arrest lawsuit is just as important. It needs to be highlighted that Executive Orders do not create arrestable lawsuit.
Y’all know this is just so they can replay clips of their “opposition” burning flags on Fox News. To vilify more people is the only goal here.
Funny. I can’t wait to fight a civil war against Fox News viewers. So we can be done with their genes. Not like the Jazzy militia will have any capabilities.
Trunp and Magats are such effing snowflakes they need a safe space.
Like prison?
That was fast, good on that guy. Will this be a watershed moment when his infernal majesty's decrees are challenged?

That's such a stupid executive order because the only difference between so called desecration and retiring a flag is the your intentions in how you are setting the flag on fire
people should start holding solemn ceremonies to retire flags via fire in public and see how that goes as well

Many U.S. veterans I know support the right of freedom of expression, to include flag burning. They say they feel its disrespectful but its the right they bleed for, for people to express themselves
I remember a case where this singer burnt an american flag in protest (I think korean war) and the president was grilled on his take on the matter and he daid that whats beautiful about our country, that we can do these things, and that im the countries we are fighting agianst thier citizens dont have the same freedoms as americans.
