Great news from Alabama - from Legal Insurrection:
In 9-0 Ruling, Alabama Supreme Court Upholds Confederate Monument Law
Confederate monuments came under attack from the radical left several years ago. In 2017, the SPLC joined the fray and published a list of places and monuments with “Confederate names” that they claimed had the potential to act as “catalysts” to “unleash more turmoil and bloodshed.”
The city of Birmingham, Alabama, decided that it would be a great idea to hide a Confederate monument behind plywood screens after the state sued the city more than two years ago.
This week, the Alabama Supreme Court unanimously ruled that this action violated state law.
Alabama’s Supreme Court ruled unanimously Wednesday that the city of Birmingham broke state law when it ordered plywood screens be placed around the base of a Confederate monument in 2017.
The 9-0 ruling by Alabama’s high court reversed a ruling by a lower court that was favorable to the city.
