\"Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a bill into law aimed at banning the sale of "hate symbols" such as the Confederate flag or the swastika on state property --- even while admitting the new edict might clash with the First Amendment and be struck down as unconstitutional.\
\
The new law --- effective immediately --- prohibits the sale of hate symbols on public grounds including state and local fairs, and also severely limits their display unless deemed relevant to serving an educational or historical purpose.\"\
