Should it be illegal to burn the French flag?
Flag desecration is any act that is carried out with the intention of damaging or destroying a national flag in public. This is commonly done in an effort to make a political statement against a nation or its policies. Some nations have acts that ban flag desecration while others have laws that protect the right to destroy a flag as a part of free speech. Some of these laws distinguish between a national flag and those of other countries.

If it's an act of terrorism or to instill fear then yes. But if it's out of respect when the flag fell on the ground.
@99HBTXH2yrs2Y
Yes, unless the flag has touched the ground.
@92KSP6V3yrs3Y
Yes, but not in circumstances where the populace feels threatened or abused by those in power.
@8Q5FHVX4yrs4Y
It should be considered not illegal if somehow part of an - unlikely to exist - cinerary rite.
