A New York mom is caught between a rock and an appellate court. The "presence of the Confederate flag," when "viewed pragmatically," "is a symbol inflaming the already strained relationship between the parties," the judges found. The case made its way to the appellate court in Albany, which brought the rock to the forefront of the dispute. Andrew Cuomo signed a law preventing the sale of Confederate flags and other "hate symbols" like it, such as the swastika, on state property. Proponents of the flag argue it recalls "Southern heritage and wartime sacrifice," Britannica says.
