MessageNo. What's the point in having a flag when you're just going to let people desecrate it?

ToDebating the Improved Democratic Flag Restoration Freedom Bill.
MessageThe current bill really does not effect the common citizen, people can burn as many flags as they want but it does stop corporations and businesses using it in advertising, to stop them playing on nationalist pride to sell a product. It's to keep what the flag means in-tact and away from commercialism.

MessageWhat's the problem if a buisness uses the flag? With are current advertising laws the government has the power to determine what is "acceptable" for advertising so this is pointless. But I would hope that with the crazy tax rate corporations pay they will be allowed to use the damn flag, as they are the one's paying for it.

ToDebating the Improved Democratic Flag Restoration Freedom Bill.
MessageWho is doing the selling and buying? The flag is already owned, it's not like a stock that can traded on the market. We are only talking about the right to use the flag for commerical purposes. I don't see how that is selling patriotism when there is no "whoring" of the flag for profit purposes only, And why deny a entire group of citizens from using the flag even for commerical purposes? Restricting the liberties and preventing an entire group of the population from their right to display the flag however they please is the real crime here,
