Don't speak ill of Trump lest he send his fiery serpents after you. Probably not exactly what you meant but it was the best I could come up with.

The esteemed President Elect Trump:  

"Nobody should be allowed to burn the American flag - if they do, there must be consequences - perhaps loss of citizenship or year in jail"

I'm glad that MAGA is finally seeing that Trump is nothing more than a male Hillary.

While I disagree with Trump on this issue, it's not like he's proposing putting them in the electric chair.

The loss of citizenship if it was imposed at all should be limited to first generation immigrants only, just my opinion. If you just became a citizen and you start burning that flag that raises some serious questions.

Nah, I just think it's funny. I just want any Hillary shills here to see that their candidate is no different on this.

For burning a piece of cloth?

You know it's not that simple.

So do we.

Regardless, I think it's possible he's just trolling everybody that praised Castro.

[mtangelsfan]

Close.  The people were worshiping the brass serpent and Hezekia told them to stop as it was was just a thing of brass.

The flag is just a think of cloth.  Not to be worshiped.  I, myself, find flag burning distasteful but I also don't think it should be a crime.

[Make Angels Great Again]

I don't think the flag should be worshipped either. But I do think the act of burning it shows you have little respect for what it represents.

Sure it is. The problem is that people make it complicated.

i have no issue with people being deported or jailed for burning the flag, mainly because who has the time to do that these days anyway?

i'm willing to bet the person that takes the time to demonstrate and burn a flag are more likely to be on unemployment than those in the workforce.

It's not just here. Proud citizens of any country see it as a huge insult.

Why don't you go to Mexico and burn their flag while waving the US flag and see how it goes over.

[Adam]

Proud citizens is a huge problem. 

[Make Angels Great Again]

I'm not touching that one, lol.

I would only burn a piece of cloth if I needed a fire and had no other fuel.

If they are citizens already, should they not be afforded the same rights as a natural born citizen?

In 99% of cases, absolutely. However, i'm guessing first generation citizens are more likely to do harm. I could be wrong, but that's just a guess.

So who decides if they fall under that other 1%?

Fun fact: Hillary Clinton co-sponsored the Flag Protection Act when she was senator.
