DESCRIPTION:A safe space for community to gather and exercise our First Amendment 
 Rights to Freedom of Speech.\n\nThis event is BYOF (Bring Your Own Flag) or 
 just come to witness.\n\n   For the 6th year in a row we will create a safe 
 space for the ritual burning of American flags. \n\n   In the United States 
 burning a flag is an act of protected speech under the First Amendment to 
 the United States Constitution, as established in Texas v. Johnson, 491 
 U.S. 397 (1989), and reaffirmed in U.S. v. Eichman, 496 U.S. 310 (1990). \n 
   In 2005 there was a Flag Burning Amendment before Congress which was 
 defeated.  It is a credit to our country that our freedoms include the 
 burning of it's flag as a form of protest or whatever.  This level of Free 
 Speech is to be celebrated.\n\n  People have different reasons they choose 
 to burn the flag.  Reasons that some have given include:\n- An expression 
 of freedom.\n- An exhibition of 1st Amendment Rights of Freedom of Speech 
 (which includes flag burning).\n- A protest of the government.\n- A 
 celebration of our country and democracy.\n- A sacred burn 
 ritual.\n\nWhatever your reason, we will create a safe space and facilitate 
 a ritual in which everyone is welcome to share.  We've hosted and 
 facilitated a peaceful and respectful flag burn successfully for 5 years.  
 We feel it is important to demonstrate this freedom and welcome others to 
 join in.\n\nFeel FREE to join us with your flag or come as a witness to 
 this community friendly event.\n\nBrent
