NEW YORK ATTORNEY DEFENDS OUR RIGHT TO FLY THE FLAG!!!

If South Carolina ever decides to dishonor the memory of so many of its men who died in what might well be termed the Second American Revolution – and if Mississippi ever yields to similar pressure to remove the Confederate battle flag from its state flag – can we imagine the next demands of the frequently incredible NAACP (which remains tongue-tied at the scandalous racial segregation now practiced by the Congressional Black Caucus)? 

Think of the possibility that the NAACP might demand the name of the capital city of Washington be changed because the father of our country was a slave owner. 

Think of the NAACP demanding that the Washington Monument be renamed – in honor of John Brown. And further demanding that the name of our nation's capital be changed from Washington to Nat Turner City, and the state of Washington to the state of Malcolm X. 

There would, of course, also be a need to remove the name and photograph of Gen. and President Ulysses Grant from our currency, for he too was a slave owner, as was Mrs. Grant, who, with her two slaves, was very nearly captured by Confederate cavalry.

"'There's nothing more sacred in the country than the First Amendment. If someone wants to raise that flag then they have the First Amendment right to do so,' said attorney Richard Roth of the Roth Law Firm in New York City. 

"Roth, who has argued several First Amendment cases before the federal courts, noted that South Carolina is the only state with any legal limitation on flying the Confederate flag. 

"'It may not be good for business and it may not be good for general character and reputation, but legally you have every right to fly any flag,' said Roth."
