FREE SPEECH MEANS NOTHING...:

LSU protesters stop planned flag burning (Associated Press, May 12, 2011)

The Advocate reports LSU graduate student Benjamin Haas had originally planned to burn an American flag Wednesday to promote his First Amendment rights and to support an LSU student arrested last week for stealing and burning a flag.

When Haas finally arrived to a chaotic scene, he was surrounded by a large crowd yelling obscenities and chanting, "U-S-A" and "Go to hell hippie, go to hell."

...if it has no consequences for the speaker.
