Flag burning is protected under the First Amendment as free speech. See Texas v. Johnson (1989). The government cannot prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds it offensive. 🍊💩 can try to prohibit it all he wants. The ruling trumps his pen on this one.

Too bad there wasn't precedent to block child marriage

Right? Some Xtians claim that because Mary was a child, they should be allowed to marry, impregnate, etc. 13 year olds. When my evangelical father told me that, I was like... yeah... Haven't spoken to him since.

😳

It’s a cool graphic map of the US with legal age for marriage by state. Each state is represented by an equally-sized square in red yellow orange or grey and the squares are arranged as the states are. These states have made the legal age 18: WA OR MN MO MI PA VA NY NJ VT MA CT DE DC ME NH AND RI. You must be 17 in MD FL GA OH TN KY NE NV. In ID MT ND UT WY SD IA WI CO I’ll IN WV SC NC AL AR AK LA and TX it’s 16. 15 in KS and HI. And there’s no age limit at all in CA NM OK and MS.

In theory, yes. However, unless the govt is willing to uphold that ruling & others, in reality it's become illegal.
