District court judges in New York State are now demanding that a mother choose between her mixed-race child and her confederate flag.

As The Hill reports:

An appellate division of the state’s second highest court ruled in a 5-0 decision that a couple would retain joint custody of their child born in 2014, The Albany Times Union first reported. But Justice Stanley Pritzker wrote in the court’s ruling the woman has until June 1 to remove the rock from her driveway. Otherwise, it could factor “into any future best interests analysis.”

“Given that the child is of mixed race, it would seem apparent that the presence of the flag is not in the child’s best interests, as the mother must encourage and teach the child to embrace her mixed race identity, rather than thrust her into a world that only makes sense through the tortured lens of cognitive dissonance,” Pritzker wrote.

Pritzker wrote in the ruling the mother, identified as Christie BB in court documents, testified she had the rock in her driveway, which the judge declared a “a symbol inflaming the already strained relationship between the parties,” according to the Times Union. The mother told the court “she has never used any racial slurs in front of the child or at all.”

“As such, while recognizing that the First Amendment protects the mother’s right to display the flag if it is not removed by June 1, 2021, its continued presence shall constitute a change in circumstances and Family Court shall factor this into any future best interests analysis,” Pritzker wrote.

The demand from the judge that she remove her confederate flag adorned rock or risk having it factor into a future decision about whether she will potentially lose her child in a custody battle seems to a major violation of any traditional understanding of constitutional liberty.

Is the judge’s demand a violation of the first amendment, or is she merely attempting to ensure the child grows up in a home free of racism? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

  1. Yeah! These lawyers and judges know best alright! Government pushing single parents, sexualizing minors, communism, anti cigarette but allowing a NARCO State [Mexico] to poison millions of families with heroin! Endless wars, decadence and deceit l! Tell the judge to go to hell!🇺🇸

    Respectfully,
    🔺️

    1. Your mention of anti-tobacco campaigns by our government, particularly their concern about children being exposed to secondhand smoke, reveals the hypocrisy of liberals. The local casino allows smoking, and young children are dragged into that facility and exposed to lots of second hand smoke, while they witness their parents losing their nest eggs. (One couple left their infant child strapped in a car seat for hours in the adjacent parking garage while they gambled.) It’s surprising that a riotous crowd of liberals does not materialize daily to protest such heresy against one of their campaigns.

    2. Don’t forget about globalist puppet, royal family and their opium drug trade, poisoning millions of globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep .

    3. This is so wrong. The judge crossed the line. What happened to the First Amendment? This judge is a liberal a**h**e.

  2. Seems that judge has overstepped the bounds of the 1st amendment. She should keep her mouth shut and resign from her position as a judge. She is not a judge but a lowdown arbiter.

  3. IT IS TIME TO REMOVE LIBERAL JUDGES FOR GOOD. THEY ARE CORRUPTION KNOW NO BOUNDS AND IT IS TIME TO REMOVE THEM

  4. They seem to have all the wrong answers. Never what good or right. Abortions is OK but the flag isn’t.

  5. Another Democrap judge who don’t care about the constitution or mothers rights just the agenda nothing else matters

    1. Another globalist puppet, democrap criminal party judge who loves globalist bribes more than America and our constitution and our laws .

  6. lokk thus judge should immediately be dismissed from the bench. This judge has no right to infringe on free speech. Bet this is a judge that would force a parent to give hiormones to thier child if that child wanted to be a different sex. Like a child actually knows what they want. This is a problem having these judges who are paid off by these suoer rich to cause futher division and strip people of thier natural/god given rights, if this is the only issue in this case.

  7. The judge is violating her first amendment rights, but it is New York, and rights are not honored as they should be-

  8. Very petty. Very petty. It’s a pitty. Truly, the only bad influence on this child is the court.

  9. That’s BS from that judge to say that. What about all the babies black and white that were born when the confederate flag originated

    1. When globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep physically and verbally abuse their children and give them their first taste of drugs and get to keep custody of the children .

  10. I do not claim to be an expert in these things but how in the heck is removing a flag from the womans front yard going to change anything about the way a child is raised. Does that judge think removing the flag is going to change a lifetime of beliefs and experiences the woman has grown up with? Is it going to be like turning a light switch off and everything goes away in the dark? Or is this another example of a progressive political judge who is hell bent on changing America the way he thinks it should be changed without considering the beliefs or political leanings of someone he considers a subject rather than a citizen? Some people should not be trusted with any sort of power over other people. To some people power is like a narcotic, a powerfully addictive drug that overwhelms them. A little power is a dangerous thing in the hands of some people and we would do well to remember that when it comes time to trust people with it. For an example just look at the speaker of the house, Nancy Pelosi. She appears to confuse herself with God Almighty, according to recent reports. I believe removing her from the speakers chair when the time comes will damage her, mentally. Just my personal observations.

    1. It is always racist globalists and racist globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet, racist democrat criminal party that tries to make Americans feel like they are racists .

  11. This horrid, racist judge is typical of the “woke” judicial culture spreading so rapidly in our country (for instance John Roberts of the SCOTUS). What this mother does regarding her child is HER business, and NOT the state’s business. This judge should be disbarred or simply eliminated.

  12. The demonically controlled Democratic socialists are simply agents of evil that seek to punish and torment the children of God. These evil vermin want to reduce population of non-elites by encouraging abortion and sexual deviancy, while claiming to be saviors of minorities. While doing great evil, these vermin enrich themselves and their elite fellow travelers.

  13. More and more of our rights as AMERICANS are being taken away daily. This CAN NOT HAPPEN!!! Let’s put together militias again, biden. IS NOT PROTECTING AMERICANS, HE’S MAKING THINGS WORSE ON A DAILY BASIS, look at the border CATASTROPHE, I feel terrible about the non support of our border patrol agents, biden/harris commies and what about mayorkas, HE IS BEYOND ANY UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS GOING ON!!! IF WE DON’T DO SOMETHING, WE WILL BE COMMUNIST, AND I FOR ONE WON’T PUT UP WITH THAT

  14. What an idiot!! This judge puts a rock above the actual evidence of whether this mother will act in the best interests of the child. This judge should be disrobed for failure to do his duty as a judge.

  15. How much did that globalist puppet judge stupid imagination cost globalist puppet $oro$ . . . . .

  16. Someone needs to tell the judge that the Confederate Flag is not racist. The woke crap has pushed that narative too far. Many black men died supporting that flag, not because they were forced to, but because it represented their country. Yes slavery was horrible, but there were many slaves in the north too and not only black slaves, but white Irish slaves. Educate yourself before you look any dumber. The Civil War was fought for States Rights.

  17. I think the judge’s decision is infringing on the mother’s freedom. Wht does it matter what the child’s race is, as long as she is loved & well taken cared of?

  18. The judge is not upholding the oath he took, this is typical of a lying democrat disregarding the U.S. Constitution, the judge should be taken off the bench, probably a Marxist supporter anyway.

  19. STUPID IS AS STUPID GETS HERE! THIS IS ILLEGAL AND THIS JUDGE NEEDS REMOVED NOW! VIOLATING THE CONSTITUTION ON FREE CHOICE!

  20. All these people involved with this must be really proud, and the child will find out about this someday, and defend his mom with a vengeance. These people “including the judge”
    will face the consequences of their actions.

  21. No one should demand a person to remove anything they believe in. This is suppose to be a free country! I am white, believe in freedom. White and proud of it!!!

  22. And these judges violate our freedoms of speech! Remove all these communist, marxist, socialist, progressive, stalinists, leninists, pedophile protector democrats from office!   Period.

  23. The woman isn’t breaking the law so judge is making her raise the child as the judge would.If this crap is allowed then other judges can tell parents how they want the children raised. This is not Constitutional.

  24. This judge probably doesn’t even have any children of her own, and she is telling this mother how to raise her child. This judge differently has stepped over the line telling this mother what to do and on how she should raise her child.

    This mother needs to get a her strong attorney for her case, however, if she has an attorney, then he or she isn’t doing their client any justice, by listening to this corrupt and crooked, and out-of-touch judge re-guarding our Constitution and our Bill of Rights.

  25. Sounds like ” quid pro quo”, like so many other happenings these days! The worst q-p-q offender-Biden-is teaching his people how to apply it well…

  26. This man may be a judge but he has absolutely no business putting any kind of demands on this woman like this. One more thing to add to the problems jumping out of the shadows where our country is concerned!
