Question

In its argument to make flag burning a criminal offense,What events did Texas predict might happen?How does the court interpret the significance of these possible events?

Answer 1

Texas predicted the desecration of a venerated object but the state did not reach its goal of breach of peace. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you. Have a nice day.

Answer 2

The correct answer is that Texas predicted that flag burning will “cause a breach of peace.”  Meaning that burning of the flag will be a criminal offence.

The Court interprets Texas’  complaint as evidence that “the flag’s special role is not in danger.”
