re: LSU Students to protest Daughters of Confederacy on campus

Best characterized the NAACP-sponsored event slated for 5 p.m. Thursday as a “Confederate BBQ,” where the flag will be “roasted” on a grill.
It is against the law in Louisiana and four other states to mutilate the Confederate flag. Louisiana’s law sets punishment at a $100 fine and 90-day jail sentence for anyone “convicted of mutilating, defiling or casting contempt by word or act” against the flag, though it’s unlikely that would be enforced because of U.S. Supreme Court rulings that have upheld the right to burn the United States flag.
Best said she has invited various campus groups to join the “Confederate BBQ” at Milford Wample Park, sometimes referred to as Stanford Park.
She said the demonstration will be a celebration of the Black Lives Matter movement but also a time of “good food and fellowship” to promote unity.
“Everyone is welcome,” she said.

Against La law to burn flag
Ah, I remember when James David Cain introduced the reduced penalties for beating up a flag burner. $25 I think. After it foundered It got amended on the last day on the Senate floor to be an anti-abortion bill. Crashed and burned again.
Good times in the La legislature.
I guess these gals couldn't get into the DAR, so they formed their own lesser sorority? Like ZTA?

What a way to promote unity! By inciting hatred and embracing ignorance!
The "Progressives" truly are the new fascists.
