CHURCH OF SATAN SUES MISSISSIPPI FOR WANTING TO WRITE ‘GOD’ ON STATE FLAG
BIN ^ | 7/12/2020 | Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz

Posted on 07/13/2020 4:38:06 PM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

As part of the wave of tearing down symbols of historic racism., Mississippi State Governor Tate Reeves, a Republican, signed legislation last month ordering the “prompt, dignified, and respectful” removal of the state flag bearing the rebel symbol from all state property.

Mississippi was the only state whose flag contained the Confederate battle flag, adopting it in 1894, nearly three decades after the Civil War. 64% of voters reaffirmed the flag in a 2001 referendum. In the wake of the race riots sweeping across the country, Reeves decided to introduce the new legislation calling to redesign the flag. “I know there are people of goodwill who are not happy to see this flag change,” Reeves said. “They fear a chain reaction of events erasing our history — a history that is no doubt complicated and imperfect. I understand those concerns and am determined to protect Mississippi from that dangerous outcome.”

Both chambers of the state legislature voted overwhelmingly for the legislation. Reeves, Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann, and House Speaker Philip Gunn selected a nine-member commission to decide on a new design for the flag, which must contain the words “In God We Trust.” Voters will approve or reject the design by referendum in November. If approved, the new flag will be ratified and flown next year. If not, the commission will meet again and decide on a new design.

Replace it with “out of many, one” which is our national motto

Actually it's Satanic Temple, not Church of Satan (two different groups)--headline has it wrong, body of the article has it right: But apparently this plan to redesign the flag is not acceptable to everyone. Marc J. Randazza of Randazza Legal Group wrote in a recent letter to the attorney general of Mississippi, Lynn Fitch, that his client, the Satanic Temple, “has asked us to bring an issue of constitutional importance to your attention.”

Just tell them that since they believe Satan is their god then it’s okay.

Curious they're using Randazza again after their past history with him: Randazza has a practice that primarily focuses on the areas of First Amendment litigation, adult entertainment, trademark and copyright litigation, and domain name arbitration disputes.[8] He has represented a number of well-known adult entertainment companies including Kink.com, Bang Bus, and Milf Hunter. He also represents media businesses such as BME and bloggers in SLAPP suits.[9][10] Randazza represents multiple far-right figures, including conspiracy theorists Alex Jones, Mike Cernovich, and Chuck Johnson; and neo-Nazi Andrew Anglin.[11][12][13] Randazza defended a participant in the planning of the violent Unite the Right rally who used the pseudonym "Kristall.night". Kristall.night claimed that a federal subpoena against the app Discord following the deadly rally would reveal her identity and expose her to potential harm through doxing.[14] Randazza has defended Anglin in a lawsuit filed by a Jewish realtor in Whitefish, Montana, whom Anglin had published the name and address of on his neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer. Randazza had argued that Anglin was not responsible for the subsequent harassment and death threats the woman received, as the personal information was protected as free speech. This claim was rejected by U.S. District Court Judge Dana L. Christensen, who noted that Anglin was actively encouraging and participating in the plaintiff's harassment, and that calls to violence against a private individual are not protected speech. . .In May 2018 The Satanic Temple (TST) sued Twitter for religious discrimination with pro bono support from Randazza. In August, the Los Angeles chapter of TST disaffiliated in protest, calling Randazza a "Twitter troll and an agent of the alt-right.": Marc Randazza

The only chambers that should be considered by Mississippi is Whitaker Chambers.

Appeasement only encourages them.

As long as one feeds the Dane, the Dane will always be will be with you. Eventually even Chamberlain realize that Hitler could not be appeased. Will our traitors....er.... politicians realize that. We, the American Citizens, have been betrayed by and sold down the river by our alleged leaders time after time, after time, after time until President Trump. We are being nibbled to death by duck bites. Will we die fighting or begging? Because even the blind can see where this is going to end.

That’s irksome. Even as an Atheist, I recognize that Christianity is a part of our nation’s history and foundation; I have no problem seeing, “In God We Trust” anywhere in public or private.

If they don’t like that phrase, they can also stop accepting and spending American dollars. See how well that works out for them.
