In Baton Rouge, Louisiana, members of the Sons of the Confederate Veterans group are suing the city to protest the mayor’s recent banning of the Confederate flag during the annual Christmas parade. The group is citing the ban as unconstitutional, while the mayor has claimed he is banning the flag due to many citizens viewing it as a symbol of bigotry and hate.
