Talk:Forsyth County v. Nationalist Movement

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is not a site map for "nationalist.org". There are several links to that domain in the "external links" section. A infobox with another dozen or more is not called for. If the webmaster of that website would like to provide a page on this topic, with all of the subsidiary pages linked, then we can link to that. But this is too much. -Willmcw 20:36, July 11, 2005 (UTC)


All right, this article needs to be reworked entirely. I hope someone's listening. Look at this, it's just an advertisement for Richard Barrett. In fact he, as you can see from the history of the page, wrote and added to the article from the very beginning. He is Crosstar.

The article is filled with biased and undocumented information. For example, while history shows that the Justices did interrupt Barrett while he spoke, the article fails to mention that Barrett was insulting "negro" Justice Clarence Thomas at the time, calling for only "Americans" to lead the American courts.

Barrett wrote this, and it's just a self-serving ego-boost. Until someone fixes it, I am voting to delete it. Jwilke 23:50, 13 March 2006 (UTC) / James Wilke[reply]

It looks substantially improved to me (including the above specific problems being fixed). Are there further issues? --Delirium 03:57, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have read the Supreme Court case, and I think this article does not accurately describe the holding. The case does not say that fees for permits to demonstrate on public property are unconstitutional. It says that the fee ordinanance in Forsyth County was unconstitutional because the county had the ability to set different fees for different groups and thereby discriminate on the basis of the groups' views, and that this discrimination was unconstitutional regardless of how large or small the fee was. --Russ Blau (talk) 21:19, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It would be good to delete it.

January 24, 1987 facts[edit]

This "

Sixty-six Nationalists were arrested and police dispersed the paraders on the grounds that they lacked a permit.

is an extremely dishonest sentence. It leads one to believe that the 20,000 marchers were dispersed, which is untrue. I can witness to this, having been a participant. In fact it was the Nationalist counter-protesters who were charged with parading without a permit.

Is there any verifiable source for this info? WP:V. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 03:47, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
