I for one think hes a moron. Stupid stupid stupid. He should know better.

Or...hes genius.

He just got himself fired...for displaying on his personal facebook page...himself wearing a legally owned piece of clothing.....depicting a flag...that currently flies on the grounds of the state government which certified him as a cop at their statewide police academy.

North Charleston has some low morale these days. Dont know...but he may have hit the lotto of a lawsuit...and he may have done it on purpose.
 
So its my understanding that the confederate flag is being labeled trash because that church shooter guy had one in some way. So what if he did? Why should it be labeled bad when plenty of other people have one? Does this mean that everything else that the dude was in favor of will soon be labeled the scum of the earth as well? Because if it does, that isn't fair to those who like the stuff as well, not to mention those who are responsible for the stuff being out there at all to begin with. Should his favorite singer, actor, author, etc. get prepared for a nose dive too when they most definitely had nothing to do with his choice of action?

God bless you and them and this officer always!!!

The Clinton/Gore campaign used confederate flag pins in 1992.

Hilary will get called out on that one.

No, it's labeled trash because it is and always has been. It represented trash at it's inception and is only used today by trash.

Well you may think that it is trash, but that doesn't mean that the rest of the planet will think so.

God bless you always!!! :) :) :)

No, there will likely always be trash that hang on to it, and that's ok. Helps reasonable people recognize when they are dealing with trash.

Its is a symbol used by white christian southern trash of subjugation of others, it started showing up in the 1960's as a protest against the civil rights movement

So much for the 1st Amendment.
That you think this is a first amndment issue speaks to your lack of understanding of the first amendment

Of course it is a first amendment issue.

Are the police part of the government?

Is this officer, on his own time and on his own private facebook page, exercising his right to freely express himself?

Did the government not punish that expression of free speech by firing the officer?

Couldn't be more clear cut.
