    It’s also what the US flag code says. The only time it recommends burning is when it’s so tattered it’s not fit for use anymore.

      And this is while most people who say the flag can’t touch the ground ignore the other rules in the flag code (that doesn’t apply to civilians) that state that the flag should not be flown on the same pole as another flag, and in the event that it is flown alongside another flag on a separate pole, both flags should be flown at the same height.
