President Donald Trump said Monday that he'd support laws criminalizing flag burning, saying in a call with governors that it's time for the Supreme Court to take up the issue again as nationwide protests have intensified over the death of George Floyd.

Trump's comments follow nearly a week of protests across the country that at times have turned violent over the death of Floyd, a 46-year-old African American man who died at the hands of a police officer in Minneapolis. During the protests in some cities, people have vandalized buildings and looters have ransacked businesses. In Atlanta, protesters burned an American flag in front of CNN headquarters and photographers have captured images of flag burnings in Los Angeles and Washington state in recent days.

I guess Trump wants to be like Kim Long Dong. :palm:

This isn't what our soldiers fought for.

And if hate speech is protected how are there laws against it ?

There are not laws against hate speech. I think you are confusing hate speech with hate crimes.

Some colleges have speech codes prohibiting hate speech but those are only permitted in private colleges because free speech protections do not apply. If they are public colleges most of those provisions have been struck down.

Riots and a pandemic going on, and this is what he's concerned about.

It is more classic tRump deflection. He isn't about to piss of his racist base with his poll numbers sinking. As such he needs another "red meat" diversion to amp up his "mindless minion" base.
