I'm sorry but no flag stands for freedom or justice. People continue to go to war and die for such stupid reasons as nationalism, and all a flag can ever be is a symbol of that nationalism, nothing more. It's a stupid thing, and if you're offended by its burning, you need to ask yourself why that is. As per the Hicks quote, freedom includes the freedom to burn the flag. I don't know, perhaps the American identity is so weak and wounded that burning the flag somehow damages it.
