Nick Lemme, a Silver City resident, raises a controversial flag containing profane language in his front yard last week. He began flying the flag shortly after the election of President Joe Biden, and has faced backlash and some support from the community as a result of the strong language used on the flag.
Several Silver City and Grant County residents raised concerns after two private residences one on Swan Street in Silver City and one in Arenas Valley began flying flags that use profane language, drawing questions as to whether public displays of profanity are protected under the First Amendment.
