Confederate Flag Sales Banned In California According to a bill passed by Californias General Assembly this week, state government facilities will no longer be allowed to sell Confederate-related merchandise. The movement to end the sale of the Confederate Flag came when the mother of Assemblyman Isadore Hall saw a replica of Confederate currency being sold at the state Capitols gift shop. Its a symbol in history directly linked to the enslavement, torture, and murder of millions of Americans, Hall was quotes saying, The state of California should not be in the business of promoting hate towards others. Those opposed to the action claim that they are not defending the symbolism of the Confederate flag, but rather the principle of free speech. Lets not forget, also, that censoring history can be a very dangerous thing. What do you think?
