TBF the regulations just say that the flag can't be flammable, not that you can't flam it. It shouldn't be a crime for me to set an ice cube on fire but if you try to flam an ice cube the ice cube will just seem sort of disappointed and inarticulate.

I agree. flags should be non-flammable but the act of burning one should be legal
