California enacts ban on Confederate flag
California Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation on Thursday prohibiting state agencies from selling or displaying items bearing the Confederate flag.
State Assemblyman Isadore Hall, D-Compton, introduced the bill, AB 2444, after his mother saw replica Confederate money sold at the Capitol gift shop in Sacramento. The money featured a picture of the flag. Hall, who is black, said the state should not promote a symbol of racism that is meant to intimidate. Many African-Americans see the flag as a symbol of racism, as it was raised by Confederate states that supported slavery during the American Civil War. The bill passed the California State Assembly on Aug. 21 by a vote of 66-1. Hall said the bipartisan victory symbolized that lawmakers were "standing together united to fend off the ugly hatred of racism that's been portrayed and demonstrated through the emblem of the Confederacy." Tim Donnelly, a Republican from Twin Peaks, was the only Assembly member to vote against the bill, arguing that it infringed on the Constitutional right to free speech. "I'm a strict Constitutionalist," The Los Angeles times quoted Donnelly as saying after the vote. "It's painful and lonely.? However, other lawmakers argued that the legislation does not violate free-speech rights because it only applies to formal actions of government officials and agencies. Moreover, the law allows for the flag to be used for historical or educational purposes and does not apply to people on state property. While many anti-racism advocates hailed the new law a success, some said legislators should make better use of their time by addressing more pressing race issues ? such as racism in local police forces. These critics pointed to recent cases of police brutality, including the Aug. 9 shooting of unarmed black teen Michael Brown by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri ? which became a flashpoint for racial tensions in the U.S. Political commentator John McWhorter described California's new law as a futile endeavor that will fail to make "a real difference in black lives." "A serious approach to racism in this country will be about black men and the police. It is that nexus that teaches black America that there is something called a 'war on black men' which is what most readily comes to black people?s minds as the racism that America is 'all about,'" McWhorter wrote in the Daily Beast. McWhorter added, "Given how urgent things such as the War on Drugs, and its effect on black men and the cops are, might we not simply walk on by the damned flag?" full article...

Yeah, they lost. Why would anyone fly that flag?
And why does California give a shit about it? It would seem to me there are more pressing things to be concerned about.

AFAIK California has never been a part of dixie, so I don't even understand why they are bothered. On the other hand, I saw a huge confederate flag right near the interstate somewhere in Florida or Mississippi (don't remember the exact place). So looks like those guys have no problems with it.

I have never seen items bearing the Confederate flag at state agencies for sale anyway. A waste of time.

The confederate flag represents a Confederacy which stood for racism, prejudice, and slavery. I can't imagine why someone would fly a flag like that, unless they were either full of hate or just plain too ignorant to understand what the flag represents.

When I ask about the flag, locals tell me it is about tradition. When I explain to them about the history, they tell me it can't be true. I have sent some locals to the cemeteries where it says "killed by a rebel" and "fought the rebels" on the headstones. Bet most never went. |

the south was no more racist than the north. for the south it was a matter of invasion by a foreign country...very few southerners had slaves, or even cared about slavery as most southerners were struggling just to stay feed as share croppers. just keep on believing everything brassmonkey tells you and everything you learned in 3rd grade

California actually had the most Jim Crow laws on the books than any other state - including Mississippi - from the period after the Civil War right up until the 1960s.
Hard to believe that California was the most racist state in the Union but it was. For some still alive that history still resonates with them. |
