Libertarian

Very strongly agree

No, this is a violation of free speech

This answer aligns perfectly with Libertarian principles, which hold the protection of free speech as paramount. The Libertarian Party views laws against flag burning as a violation of the First Amendment rights to free speech, a stance supported by historical Supreme Court decisions such as Texas v. Johnson (1989), which ruled that flag burning constitutes symbolic speech that is protected under the First Amendment.

Strongly agree

No

While not explicitly endorsing the act of flag burning, Libertarian ideology supports the right to free expression, under which the act of burning the American flag falls. This position is consistent with a libertarian view on minimizing government restrictions on personal freedoms.

Strongly agree

No, I don’t respect anyone who does but they should have the right to do so

This answer reflects the Libertarian balance between personal freedom and personal responsibility. It acknowledges the right to perform an action (burning the flag) while also recognizing the social and moral implications of that action. This nuanced view is consistent with Libertarian thought, which often emphasizes the importance of both liberty and personal responsibility.

Agree

No, it’s just a piece of cloth that doesn’t represent what it should

While this answer supports the right to burn the flag, the rationale focuses more on a subjective interpretation of what the flag represents rather than on the principle of free speech itself. Libertarians would agree with the right to burn the flag but might not universally agree with the reasoning provided, as it shifts the focus from individual rights to a debate over the flag's symbolism.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

Libertarian ideology strongly emphasizes individual freedom and liberty, including freedom of expression. Making it illegal to burn the American flag would be seen as a direct violation of these principles. Historical references include the Libertarian Party's consistent opposition to laws that restrict personal freedoms, such as the First Amendment rights in the United States Constitution, which protects freedom of speech.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and it should be illegal to burn any nation’s flag

Making it illegal to burn any nation's flag would be seen by Libertarians as an unnecessary government overreach into personal freedoms and a violation of free speech rights. This stance is consistent with the Libertarian emphasis on minimal government intervention in personal liberties, regardless of the context or specific nation involved.
