Those that burn the US flag should be fined and then shot. So the fine can pay for the bullet and disposal of the body.

Twenty years in uniform, saluting the flag just about daily on average. Risked my life a couple of times for the nation. Raised the flag, lowered the flag, folded the flag. And generally i LIKE to see people make their own choice to salute it, recite the pledge, wear it as a bikini, burn it, or hang it upside down in protest.
You want blind patriotism imposed onto people, try North Korea.
It’s a brightly-colored strip of cloth. Burning it does not damage the liberties it’s supposed to represent. What you’re doing, however, does. You are advocating murder over an act of protest, a clear restriction of free speech. Restricting freedom to preserve a symbol of freedom doesn’t venerate that symbol, it makes a mockery of it.

You are correct sir, it's the recommended way to dispose of the flag period. A far greater offense is to fly a tattered or stained flag which righters do on a regular basis.
"Why are American wingnuts so obsessed with their flag?"
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
