I do have a problem with this. It is kids like this who perpetuate the myth that Rebel Flag stands for racism.

I'm not defending the kids. I'm just noticing that race is specified for just about every player in this drama--except for the accomplice, Kevin Meyers. Which leads me to believe that he is almost certainly non-white. Probably black, because if he were, say, Asian, they'd probably have said so.

Yah, I agree with you. I know what you meant, and you are probably right. My only point is, things like this give people more ammunition to banish the Rebel Flag from all public places, and have helped turn it into a racist symbols to many. And this is coming from somebody who strongly supports not only the indivudual's right to wear the Flag, but also the state's right to display it.
