Today the Georgia Supreme Court unanimously upheld the state's anti-gang statute. The court agreed that it does not infringe on First Amendment rights. The law was challenged by Efrain Rodriguez and Gilberto Rodriguez, who were both charged with murder in the 2006 death of a rival gang member. The state's highest court rejected their attorneys argument that the anti-gang law used to prosecute them is unconstitutionally vague and tramples on the rights to freely associate.
