Reply To: Freedom of Speech

Of course it’s Free Speech. That’s why it was surprising when a N.Y. politician wanted to ban flyng it and it would never hold up in court.
Besides, the Confederate Flag is dofferent. It wasn’t always associated with White Supremacy. Growing up south of the Mason-Dixon line it was quite common and we didn’t find it offensive. I’ve had Confederate Flags coffee mugs, shot glasses, etc. We even had a big one in our Yeshiva dorm. We are hardly White Supremacists. That doesn’t mean I would fly one today because I want to be sensitive. But it also doesn’t elicit a negative reaction.
