Disagree

No, I don’t respect anyone who does but they should have the right to do so

This answer might align more closely with Abbott's views than Answer 2 or 3, as it acknowledges the right to free speech while expressing disapproval of flag burning. However, given his likely strong respect for the flag, he would probably still disagree with the idea of it being legal to burn it.

Disagree

No, this is a violation of free speech

While Abbott, as a lawyer and former judge, would likely respect the importance of free speech, his conservative values would likely lead him to view flag burning as a disrespectful act that should be illegal. Therefore, he would likely disagree with this statement, but perhaps not as strongly as with Answer 2.
