$500/day fine ... so much for freedom.

Utah is the first state to this - #1 - Mormons leading the #*@# parade.

Parsing the law, the approved flags are:
  1. US
  2. State of Utah
  3. Current flag of another country or state
  4. City flags
  5. Military (branch, unit, or division)
  6. Military (POW, MIA, etc.)
  7. Indian Tribes
  8. College or university
  9. A historical US or Utah state flag (only mentions historic rule for subsections a and b, which I take to mean historic flags of any other type (e.g. other nation, other state, military, city, etc.) aren't allowed
  10. Public school flag
  11. Olympic committee
  12. Olympiad
  13. An organization authorized to use a public school, only at the location and time of their event

Politicized Christians/Mormons are the most judgemental, pharisaical people in America.
God is Love. God is Truth. The greatest problem with organized religion is that the organization becomes god, rather than a means of serving God.
