Washington: People, who burn US flags during protests, should be sentenced to 1 year in jail and the US authorities are working to introduce this measure, US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday.
“People that burn the American flag should go to jail for one year. What they should be doing. We’ll see. We can get that done. Try and get that done. We’re working with some of your senators,” Trump said in a speech at Fort Bragg.
The statement was made amid the violent protests in California where some protesters carried Mexican flags and burned US ones.
