Just read the Maine statutes, where it says:
§254. Mutilation
No person shall publicly or openly mutilate, deface, defile, defy, trample upon, or by word or act cast contempt upon any such flag, standard, color, ensign or shield. [1973, c. 262, § 2 (amd).]
Any violation of this section shall be a Class E crime. [1977, c. 696, § 8 (rpr).]
Does that mean that Maine has a provision already about flag desecreation? And if so, can a person burn a flag in let's say Massachusetts, but not in Maine? I'm confused now .... :(
