It is an unacceptable, disrespectful way to express opinions or make a statement. The flag represents more than just a piece of cloth - it symbolizes patriotism, honor, and sacrifices that have been made by military service members and citizens to protect our freedoms.

I think that while flags should certainly be respected, it is a person's right to express their dissent in any peaceful way they choose. If someone is truly so passionate about their disagreement with our country that they feel the need to make a statement, burning a flag is a completely valid way of doing so. That being said, I think that people should consider the message that this kind of protest sends to those who may not have a political opinion or knowledge. It may be easier for people to understand and relate to a peaceful protest that shows respect for our country but stands up for beliefs and rights.
