Not saying this for the sake of irony or being glib, but that strikes me as among the most common and often (depending on context) the most unreasonable complaints that circulate every day online: The complaint that our society is rife with complainers.

It seems to me that if it's legal to burn Old Glory as a sign of protest, then the display of any kind of flag should be tolerated.

I've not seen or heard that the Country Music Association or NASCAR are "OK" with anyone bringing a U.S. flag to any of their events and then setting it on fire.

I've not seen or heard that CMA or NASCAR have expressly forbidden their patrons from U.S. flag burnings, but is that now obligatory on their part, because they have expressly forbidden the display of Confederate flags at their events?

Let's be careful here to distinguish between what is legally permissible in public spaces across the U.S., and what is required by the CMA, NASCAR (etc.) of their patrons. If it's a CMA or NASCAR (etc.) event it's not just a public space.
