In my home office, on the wall, I have a flag that was carried in the Battle of Chickamauga by the a relative (Confederate).

Also, if someone challenged this and it got to the Supreme Court, it is entirely likely that this feckless group of justices would say such a ban is a-ok.

State Senator Alessandra Biaggi is responsible for this POS legislation. See here:

I suggest we all use her contact page to let her know our feelings about this bill.

Her contact page is here:

Let her have it!!

I can understand the swastika offending & angering Jews. I have never once heard or read in any article, interview or book that the swastika drives Jewish people collapsing in fear at the swastika.
Ever. All I’ve heard them say about it is Never Forget.
If blacks would grow up & treat the Confederate flag as a remnant of history & used it to teach the evils of slavery, their democrat daddy wouldn’t have to protect the pathetic children.
But alas, they choose to remain children & will never advance past 1865.
War’s over black people. The South lost. And now you war against whites; careful what you wish for.

Section 1983 of title 28 of the United States Code does just that.

I suppose BLM flags are OK with this poor excuse for a human being.

The most visible hate this past year has come from Cuomo.

Meanwhile....

New York built a highway ramp on Native land. A tribe isn't happy.
