Supreme Court: Protecting Black People, Punishing Southerners

Black Liberals are thin-skinned babies who want the government to protect them from everything but themselves.

And because of more black Liberal nonsense, the Supreme Court of the United States will hear a case about the Confederate flag license plate.

According to Reuters:

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday takes up a free speech case on whether Texas was wrong in rejecting a specialty vehicle license plate displaying the Confederate flag – to some an emblem of Southern pride and to others a symbol of racism.

The nine justices will hear a one-hour oral argument in a case that raises the issue of how states can allow or reject politically divisive messages on license plates without violating free speech rights.  States can generate revenue by allowing outside groups to propose specialty license plates that people then pay a fee to put on their vehicle.

In other words, the government will be in the business of deciding what is free speech.

 

 

 

The group, Sons of Confederate Veterans, said its members’ free speech rights were violated when the state rejected the plate. Several other states have approved similar plates.

When the state of Texas rejected the proposal in 2010, they said it had received public comments that suggested “many members of the general public find the design offensive” in large part due to the Confederacy being synonymous with the institution of slavery.

Big deal. You get a few comments, and that’s all it takes. I saw a license plate that read “BlkOnly,” ironically on a white car. The car was driven by a black woman, and I’m sure it invoked many questions from other motorists on exactly what she means.

A black Texas Democratic state senator, Royce West, said in 2011, “Ill-intended or not, why would African- Americans want to be reminded of a legalized system of involuntary servitude, dehumanization, rape and mass murder?”

Did I mention that Royce West is a Democrat! The very definition of “legalized system of involuntary servitude, dehumanization, rape, and mass murder,” and I’m not just talking about Hillary Clinton!
