I guess they should change the law and not allow to burn the flag, I know its considered freedom of speech, but at the same time, burning the flag seems to have the equal value of a hate crime, and hate crimes are not allowed, so why allow to burn the flag??

The Mandatory Minimum Laws that enforce the growth of Marijuana. They make it a federal offense for growth of more than 50 plants, but sometimes 50 plants are 50 seedlings that can fit in your sink, and you'd do a ludicrous amount of time in jail, like 50 years. And there's nothing the Judge or anyone can do about it. Tre' Harsh.

Also, the Illigality of Marijuana in the USA. I beleive that Marijuana never hurt anyone, but the harsh laws certainly have.

Drug prohibition does more to make Americans unsafe than any other factor. Just as alcohol prohibition gave us Al Capone and the mafia, drug prohibition has given us the Crips, the Bloods and drive-by shootings. Consider the historical evidence: America's murder rate rose nearly 70% during alcohol prohibition, but returned to its previous levels after prohibition ended. Now, since the War on Drugs began, America's murder rates have doubled. The cause/effect relationship is clear. Prohibition is putting innocent lives at risk.

What's more, drug prohibition also inflates the cost of drugs, leading users to steal to support their high priced habits. It is estimated that drug addicts commit 25% of all auto thefts, 40% of robberies and assaults, and 50% of burglaries and larcenies. Prohibition puts your property at risk. Finally, nearly one half of all police resources are devoted to stopping drug trafficking, instead of preventing violent crime. The bottom line? By ending drug prohibition Libertarians would double the resources available for crime prevention, and significantly reduce the number of violent criminals at work in your neighborhood.

Instead of changing, I suggest we eliminate, at random, one out of every two. Then let's see how much improvement we have then and maybe go for another round or more.

Reinstate anti-sedition laws. If somebody shows themselves to be against this country and wants to destroy our image to the world, get them out.
