Honorable Governor, Mayors, Members of City Councils of The Commonwealth of Virginia:

On behalf of The United Front for Justice, thank you for allowing us to submit an official request

before these Honorable bodies, to ban citizens from displaying hand held Confederate flags in

public chambers, serves a substantial governmental interests and thus the government is immune

from First Amendment attacks.

Our Civil Rights Coalition respects all Americans first Amendment rights, but allowing the

Confederate flag displayed inside a public meeting continues to set an impermissible precedent

where other flags, including ISIS, Third Reich Nazi German, Gay Rights and Anti-Abortion

flags, would have to be allowed even in our Courts.

We are publicly requesting The Commonwealth of Virginia to immediately ban Confederate

flag bearers from display inside public chambers to prevent a further substantial and material

disruption to the public process in light of growing racial tensions in The Commonwealth of

Virginia. See: Barr v. Lafon, 07-5743.

Thank you,

Mr. Roy L. Perry-Bey

Director Political Rights
