国民・玉木雄一郎代表が「国旗損壊罪について皆さんの意見を聞かせて」問題点挙げ問いかけ　ネット賛否（J-CASTニュース） - Yahoo!ニュース

This page reports that Yuichiro Tamaki, leader of the Democratic Party for the People, called for public opinions on the "National Flag Desecration Law" on X on March 31, 2026. Current law criminalizes damage to foreign flags, but lacks provisions for Japan's flag, creating an inconsistency. Tamaki emphasizes the need for careful consideration regarding freedom of expression and freedom of conscience. He proposes multiple examination points including clarifying the protected interests, defining which acts can be prohibited regarding freedom of expression, and determining whether subjective intent requirements are necessary. The appeal has garnered mixed online reactions.
