Explanation:

Gregory Lee Johnson burned the American flag during a protest on policies of the Reagan administration in Dallas, Texas. The reason for the demonstration was to demonstrate the consequences of nuclear war. Burning a flag was a criminal offence in Texas, as it was under federal law and Johnson was caught and charged with the violation.

William J. Brennan stated that burning an American flag carried a political message. It was an act resting at the freedom of speech guaranteed by the First Amendment. To preserve the flag is not to discipline those who feel negatively about it. It is to convince them that they are wrong by burning it which represent the nation and unite every American.
