U.S. justices to hear Confederate license plate free speech case

[merrily]

89. Please stop twisting my words. I never said unconstitutional = treason. Not even close.

This thread is about what Texas can or cannot keep off its license plates, consistent with the first amendment.

What constitutes treason is not my issue, at least not on this thread. That is something you keep trying to into this thread for some reason of your own. While I have my thoughts on what that reason might be, that, too, has nothing to do with this thread.

I did not cite Texas v White in an attempt to prove that secession equals treason. I cited it because you had claimed upthread Justice Chase had said nothing in the constitution bars secession. Given that Texas v. White says secession without consent of all states is unconstitutional, obviously, something in the Constitution does bar secession unless other states consent. Therefore, I cited Texas v. White simply to clear the record about the constitution and secession because I thought your post had muddied the record. Even though the law of treason has less than nothing to do with this thread, I cited Texas v. White simply because I did not think that the misinformation in your post about secession and the Constitution should stand on any DU thread uncontradicted.

With that, I will stop reading your posts to me on this thread. You obviously want to push an agenda that has nothing to do with the First Amendment or license plates; and I do not care to join you in making this thread about whether secession is treason.
