Here's an examination of the case regarding Israeli flags:
False claims about burning Israeli flags, based on ToI report, reach Congress
The underlying case involves someone who was wearing an Israeli flag being briefly choked when someone tanked on the flag from behind. The case was not about flag burning or damaging a flag; it was about whether the physical assault on a person might be construed as discrimination based in part on the flag used as part of the assault.
Well it's not anymore according the DC Circuit Court. That decision has created a space for our government to force a revisit to the SCOTUS decision to say burning the US flag is protected. When this eventually winds it's way back to SCOTUS I hope they thrown out Texas Vs Johnson.
Yeah the DC circuit court decision is total BS and it's not going to hold up under SCOTUS scrutiny; however, it has to get there. A lot of people are charged with BS crimes every single day but they don't have the money to fight-the-fight.
