A Senate Judiciary subcommittee amended a bill sponsored by Sen. Ernest Passailaigue, DCharleston, and sent it to the full committee for consideration next week. The measure is the first discussed in the Le- , gislature since a U.S. Supreme Court decision , in June upholding flag burning as a form of political protest protected by the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech, religion and assembly. After the court's ruling, the General Assembly adopted a resolution supporting President Bush's call for a constitutional amendment against flag burning. The non-binding resolution also expressed state lawmakers' "extreme displeasure" with the ruling. The Supreme Court's decision also had the practical effect of rendering South Carolina's flag burning statute unconstitutional. The law now makes it a misdemeanor, punishable by a maximum fine of $100 and a 30-day prison sentence, to "publicly mutilate, deface, defile, defy, jeer at, trample upon or cast contempt, either by word or act," upon the U.S., Confederate or state flag. When the statute became law in 1916, it mentioned only the state flag. Six years later, the American flag earned protection. In 1958, lawmakers amended the statute to include the Confederate flag.

Paul Ward, general counsel for USC, declined comment on suit Thursday, saying it was against the liijjMMB university's policy to talk about pending litigation.

Bursey burned the Confederate flag outside the home of then-University of South Carolina President Thomas Jones in 1969. The case was never prosecuted, and the charge is pending. Last year, Bush proposed such an amendment last year to undo the Supreme Court decision. But Democrats on Capitol Hill pushed legislation banning flag burning to avoid amending the Constitution. Bush allowed the bill passed by Congress to become law without signing it, saying that he feared it would not pass constitutional muster. Pr>nvirtir?n nnHpr the law Carries a maximum one-year prison sentence. In the first legal challenge to the Flag Protection Act, a U.S."District judge in Seattle ruled the anti-desecration law unconstitutional because it violated the First Amendment. Less than a month later, a federal judge in the nation's capital dismissed charges against three defendants accused of violating the statute. The judge again cited the guarantee of freedom of speech and rejected Justice Department arguments that the law was intended to protect the flag as a symbol rather than to regulate speech. Last week, the Supreme Court raised the possibility it will decide by early summer the constitutionality of a flag burning law. The court partially granted a Bush administration request for speedy consideration of the law, ordering challengers of the law to file legal briefs by Monday. LUflVE/ rOUl OH AV!

State Sen. Sam Stilwell, R-Greenville, said the Judiciary subcommittee tried to "read between the lines" of the original Supreme Court ruling. "If you could couch the law in such a way to prevent lawless action or destruction of property or danger to people, then you can prevent them from misusing the flag." Under the bill, a person could not "knowingly utilize" the three flags in a manner "calcu iaiea to inciie or proauce imminent lawless action resulting in danger to persons or property of others and is likely to incite or produce such result." In effect, someone wishing to burn a flag would have to consider the consequences of the action, Stilwell said. "It's just the same old thing as you have the right of free speech but you can't holler fire in a crowded theater," he said. Sen. John Courson, R-Columbia, said the measure sends "a very strong message out to anyone who wants to abuse the flags listed in the bill. The General Assembly in this state feels very strongly that these banners should not be abused. "When one burns the flag of the United States or of the other entities listed, that action is used to incite people to react in a very negative way and this is what we're trying to address in this bill," Courson said. The bill does not change the penalties for violators.
