Commonwealth v. Morgan

*518Dissenting Opinion by

Packel, J.:

I dissent because the statute is overbroad.1 Wha,t a person may say or display as to the flag, absent some element of commotion or other public concern, is a matter of free speech.2 An aberration of mind together with its expression, without more, is no crime.
