Original Note:
The First Amendment does not protect actions that infringe on the property rights of other people. Burning one's own American flag is constitutionally protected as expressive speech, but vandalizing public property and the property of others is not. https://www.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/free-speech-flag-burning_1.pdf
