Confederate flag banned from being sold or displayed on state property in New York

Good point.
But, unfortunately Blacks, Latinos, Asians & Jews dictate votes & thus policies in NY.

By classical definitions I've not met State Capitalist Commies in New York.

By the Republican oafish definition then many on NY would be Commies.

but inst that what democrats are all about they love minority's especially illegals and people that hate America
 
As a result of the historical effort of over 80 million voters as the majority legitimately and lawfully voting against Putin's lap dog tRump, the uncorrupted electoral college this time getting the ball rolling at dismantling the lawlessly hacked in COVID-45 tRump atrocity that has conspired to covid murder over 300,000 Americans, and with federal courts and SCOTUS to back it up at defending Democracy against tRump and his sewer mob's effort to destroy Democracy. This includes republican judges against tRump who has been on a four year stint as a imposter or fake president in violation of U.S. Constitutional law. Banning the confederate rag on U.S. territory is also getting the ball rolling at finally finishing the job of destroying remnants that remain of the dead and defunct confederate insurgency, and a symbol that is used to engage in treason, domestic terrorism and anything else of a uncivilized and un American nature.

The governor said the bill "will help safeguard New Yorkers from the fear-instilling effects of these abhorrent symbols.

ALBANY, N.Y. — The sale or display of Confederate flags, swastikas and other “symbols of hate” on state property is banned in New York under a law signed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo despite concerns it may violate free speech protection under the U.S. Constitution.

“This country faces a pervasive, growing attitude of intolerance and hate — what I have referred to in the body politic as an American cancer,” Cuomo said in his bill-signing memo on Tuesday.

“By limiting the display and sale of the Confederate flag, Nazi swastika and other symbols of hatred from being displayed or sold on state property, including the state fairgrounds, this bill will help safeguard New Yorkers from the fear-instilling effects of these abhorrent symbols,” he said.

Like StoneByStone & myself?
Not a 100% sure where StoneByStone lives, but considering she considers Staten Island as rural, she most likely lives in NYC.

Truth is White Christians in New York are mostly Trump supporters, especially in 2016 before it was apparent that Trump didn't do sh\t but run his mouth, divide America & destroy the environment.

But, having lived here my life.

No, just no.

Where I grew up was mostly Republican Italians & Irish Catholics.

The Italians in particular were extremely prejudiced in Putnam Lake, NY.

In the 2000s Millennial Italian skateboarders started a riot against a Black Jamaican, hurling racial slurs, rocks, bottles & bottle rockets at him.

Seen the same Jamaican attacked for no reason by an Italian Millennial.

Saw near 2010 another Italian Millennial attack another Black guy for no reason.

The kids there called bad things Gay or Jewish they made jokes about Ugly N*ggers & Holocaust ash tray Jews, and dirty M3xicans, and Spycs.

Not to mention dumb Polak jokes.

It wasn't a tolerant or peaceful place.
 
Of course the GOP is racist. Just look at this thread. The confederate flag is todays symbol of racism and every fucking rightwing asshole who has posted here is bent out of shape because of of this law. Who flies the fucking thing? Rightwingers. Who flies the swastika? Rightwingers.

If it were a law against displaying the Black Lives matter flag they would be saying GOD DAMN RIGHT!

Why do you like censorship? Maybe we should ban everything that offends you.
 
Will this ban include use for historical purposes or historical display say like in a museum? It sounds to me it's as much about erasing history as it is anything else...

Aside from that, shouldn't Cuomo be more engaged in trying to deal with Chinese Official Virus Intended for Death than this minor issue?

stop being intellectually lazy, click the link and read carefully and comprehensively. From the linked article, ".... Exceptions are made for images used in books, museum services or materials used for educational or historical purposes."
 
Agreed. It's also evidence of LW authoritarianism meaning they are no better than the RW authoritarians AKA fascists AKA fucking Nazis.

Thank God we had Trump to protect the rights of all Americans. ;)

I would like these folk to explain how being AGAINST any attempt to use state property to justify/rationalize slavery is the same as fascist and nazi dictates throughout history.

Only the racist idiots are claiming everyone who supports the status quo is trying to justify/rationalize slavery. Your attitude, sir, is the same as the RWNJ racists because you both label each other the worst and use the same tactics to attack each other.

Supporting or condoning slavery is wrong. That should have nothing to do with the history of our nation. In fact, it should a lesson from the past about how this nation was built.

Many right of your position, myself included, remember how people like you enjoy making stepping stones for greater restrictions on rights. Government should be about increasing freedoms. You are making it about control.

Haven't been following the conversation but this is about flags on state property, not elsewhere.

Agreed. My argument supports the status quo, not removing history because it's politically incorrect. Building on that history is okay. Lying about it isn't.

Our nation lied about Wounded Knee for one hundred years. Bad shit happened. We should be learning from it instead of burying it because some people feel mankind's bloody brutality against fellow man is too disturbing to remember.

PS State flags are different; a state's citizens are free to change their flag however complies with any regs on it. After watching my two Senator and House Representatives grovel under Trump for four years, we should add a yellow streak to it.

itwas a nice place when republicans controlled it
 
The framers of U.S. Constitutional law to which tRump and his tRumptards violated on so many levels, would like to have a word with you, and at this point be it in the spirit.

Do you know who Larry Flynt is? The Founding Fathers would have been on his side.

Actually what tRump and his sewer mob would call so-called white people in America who poor and middle class, struggling, elderly and being ripped off too among tRump and his swine insurgency on their taxpayer money, considers them as so-called white trash, easy to manipulate, uneducated and that all of them being are losers and suckers. What type of so-called supremacy do you consider that to be to which Putin's b!tch tRump continues to play his tRumptards as fools who are probably the least intelligent life form on Earth to allow themselves to be played as prostitutes by Don the Con?
