Hmmm,... the consequences of literal translation of the law.

Personally I think anyone burning the Flag of their own country is at least shameful, and at worst treasonous. However, if that is how the law stands, I guess the answer is either to let them get away with it or change the law.

I'm sure that some of these eventualities were never considered when the laws were originally drafted.

One's Flag is a very emotive issue, and I could easily see myself getting caught in this mess if fr example, the "Politically Correct" ever get the Flag changed in Australia. I would not recognise the new flag, because it is not "My" Flag, it would be no more than a pretty dish towel.
