18 U.S. Code § 700 - Desecration of the flag of the United States; penalties. Whoever knowingly mutilates, defaces, physically defiles, burns, maintains on the floor or ground, or tramples upon any flag of the United States shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for not more than one year, or both.
For the past several decades, our illustrious congress and SCOTUS has made it illegal to enforce that law. It might cramp some rabble rouser’s right to “free speech”.
