I would disagree with that statement. The following link is the laws regarding the proper used and display of the American flag. It is illegal to fly another nations flag above the American Flag on US soil.

I know the diffrence between right and wrong, even when right happens to fall on the wrong side of the law. :patriot:
I think the point is that Mr. Brossard is not a federal agent so even if it were illegal he was still taking the law into his own hands by stealing the flag and vandalizing property.

If it occurred at night, it might make a difference. Either way, I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of that jury.

Whether this man is a criminal or not, I would not sentence him to jail time.
