Dallas Morning News | Editorials: "Theo van Gogh was a crude lout, but he was also a citizen of a nation and a civilization that recognized his right to free expression. That right must be defended without hesitation or apology."
If we are willing to defend the rights of those whose drawings blaspheme Allah and his Prophet, we ought to be willing to tolerate those who express their political viewpoints by burning the American flag. Has the DMN editorial board taken a position on the subject?

The people who burn our Flag have no idea what they are doing. The Star and Stripes goes beyond meaningless polotics. It waves and stands for everything this country was founded apon. It means everything that American is. It stands for our past, for our future. Men have died for what our flag stands for and to burn it is a mockery of what they did. They have no idea what they are doing when they are burning our flag and should be shot for doing it. This is a free country if you do not like it you have every right to leave.
That is exactly how Muslims feel about Allah and the prophet. Should a country allow someone to defame what others hold dear? Whether your answer is yes or no, we should be consistent.
