"What should be given equal stature to the Malcolm X symbol?

Dude, just read the sentence right before my last statement. It's yours, I quoted it.

Please point out the section of the First Amendment that discusses offensiveness.

Please point out where I said either symbol should treated contrary to the first amendment. I think neither have a place in public buildings, but that's up to the voters. I think neither have a place in school or the workplace, but that's up to the administrators and employers. But if some idiot wants to wear one on his shirt in public or put one on his car and deal with the friction, good luck with that.

Okay. You're smart and I'm a tard. Hows about explaining the American flag/Malcolm X connection cuz I can't see it.

You brought up 'offensiveness'. That's usually the first step in any politically correct attempt to silence free speech.

But if some idiot wants to wear one on his shirt in public or put one on his car and deal with the friction, good luck with that.

Thank God that the idiots that support political correctness don't rule the roost.....yet. (With the help of so called conservatives like yourself, they may yet win.)

But you make a helluva point about 'friction'. It's a good thing that some people aren't afraid to 'deal with friction'. It makes it possible for those that prefer to cower in their safe havens to be free.
