Quote:Does the constitution give one person the freedom to desecrate something belonging to another person.
Yes.
Quote:The United States Supreme Court in Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397 (1989), and reaffirmed in U.S. v. Eichman, 496 U.S. 310 (1990), has ruled that due to the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, it is unconstitutional for a government (whether federal, state, or municipality) to prohibit the desecration of a flag, due to its status as "symbolic speech."
BTW, the people who "own" the statue are not the ones filing the charge.
