This is the flag that I grew up with at my childhood home.

I “desecrated” it in 1989, when President George Bush pushed for a Constitutional amendment to ban flag burning or desecration following the Supreme Court’s Texas v Johnson decision.

It has been hanging in my garage for more than 30 years now.

I could never have imagined that this issue would rear its ugly head again, but here we are.

This particular flag is special to me because of its history, so I will not be taking it out to protests.

I do, however, intend to purchase several new flags and similarly “desecrate” them with the first fucking amendment.

I invite you to do the same.
