Those Flag Desecrators in Utah

Remember a while back when I wondered about what kind of "desecration" would be illegal if the Constitution were amended to allow Congress to pass anti flag desecration laws? Look no further than Utah where, almost inconceivably, some poor schmuck was prosecuted for hanging a flag at his house into which he burned a smiley face. Is that what you want? Shouldn't the cops stick to violating the Fourth and Sixth Amendments instead?
