I didn’t say anything about other’s property.

Sure it did:

The bill by Democratic Assemblywoman Wilma Carter of Rialto would make it a misdemeanor to hang a noose on someone else's property or at a school or workplace.

As I said, doing this on other properties should be a big no no. How is this reconcileable with property rights, if I hang a noose from your door?

However the problematic bit is whether such displays are banned from protests (I guess so...), in which case it would be a matter of free speech.

>>> The bill by Democratic Assemblywoman Wilma Carter of Rialto would make it a misdemeanor to hang a noose on someone else’s property or at a school or workplace.

Title of the thread says that the display of nooses is now illegal in California.

Certainly I don’t agree that one should have the right to violate another person’s property. Why did they have to make a law about nooses over that??? The law should already be on the books... Tresspass at the very least, and hate speech at best. One shouldn’t have the right to place campaign signs or even a coke can on someone else’s property either... It’s not their property!

Consider what the new law is stating about those who are not even inclined to do such a thing!

It’s like saying “All white people are racists” with the damb law!
