The Supreme Court on Monday struck down a longstanding U.S. ban on trademarks on “immoral” or “scandalous” words and symbols, ruling in a case involving a clothing brand with an indelicate name that the law violates constitutional free speech rights. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-u...edName=topNews

Dems, really? It is the Christian right that likes to ban whatever they think is immoral or crude. Plus if you read the article, you would have seen that it was the Trump administration that argued to keep the ban. And last time I checked, the Trump administration are Republicans.

I would say constantly screaming that a large group of Americans are abominations who should be rounded up and executed is more than a "matter of disagreement."

Wow, one post and another thread becomes a partisan cesspool.
Great...now they need to stop the FCC from its outdated practice of monitoring broadcast TV for language and content! Ive never understood why some felt we needed a federal govt agency to censor network tv, and not only that, its a govt agency deciding what words and content need to be censored!!!!
