50. Hillary is also against the flag burning amendment contrary to DU lore.

What she was for was a narrow and explicitly defined law against flag burning to incite violence.

She cosponsored a bill in 2005.

"Clinton is co-sponsoring a bill that would make it a crime to destroy a flag on federal property, intimidate anyone by burning a flag or burning someone else's flag."

She was also for Durbin's amendment to the amendment bill that was almost identical.

Guess who also voted for Durbin's amendment? Why that would be one Barack Obama!
