              Landmark US Flag Burning Case Marks 25th Anniversary

   by Jim Malone

   Saturday, June 21, marks the 25th anniversary of a landmark Supreme
   Court decision on free speech. By a vote of five to four, the high
   court ruled that burning the American flag as a form of political
   protest was a protected act of free speech under the U.S. Constitution.
   As VOA's Jim Malone reports, the decision was controversial at the time
   and, for some, remains so today.
