Sigh, as we well know this is another ammendment (for another good example look at say the 18th) which degrades the US constitution and bill of rights by making the whole thing self contradictory. I now assume that flag burning will have penalties, and that "inciting" flag burning will be criminal??? All of those in the US: Time to get out the stars and stripes, some gasoline and the matches.
