In my country it is illegal - but i think it is tied back to the colonial days - no one cares much about the law now.
i do know that some guy was prosecuted a while back though for it.
i think the case fell on its face, so it probably doesn't really count over here.
I would never do it to my countries flag - it would be saying that i denounce and hate everything about my country, and i love my country very much - i think that burning another nations flag is a very very strong statment to make and i wouldn't burn the flags of many nations - maybe zimbabwe's or something.
But not like the US's or like China's or anything - to do it i think you have to really say : i hate these people or what is happening over there, and i denounce their culture and way of life.
