Explain what Allen means, using details from the editorial to support answer.

Answer: What Allen tries to convey is that he believes that burning the flag is not the right way to convey feelings of disagreement. He also contrasts the difference between freedom of conscience and expression. He believes that there are other ways to convey disagreement with governmental policies.

I hope it helps, Regards.
