What would your reaction be if someone abused your idol opps sorry I mean your flag, burn it stamp on it use it to clean their shoes or the toilet?

Personally, I wouldn't do anything.

American law says that it is perfectly legal to destroy or abuse the flag.

But it would be breaking the law to physically stop someone from doing it.

Because it is just a symbolic piece of cloth and nothing more.
