If we are doing to allow muslims to stage protests with placards reading "Death to the UK/USA" and burning our flags (which I don't consider to be a crime either), we have to be prepared to afford other groups the same rights. It's called living in a democracy.

It's a crime to show disrespect to the US flag in the US.
