Warren Tells Mississippians at Town Hall: Get Another State Flag Sans Confederate Symbol
Breitbart ^ | 19 March 2019 | Penny Starr

Posted on 03/19/2019 6:52:02 PM PDT by KC_Lion

The Associated Press

CNN hosted a town hall on Monday in Mississippi with presidential candidate and Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) where she answered questions on a range of issues, including the Mississippi flag, which features in its field a Confederate symbol. “Mississippi’s the only state in the country that still has the Confederate battle emblem on the state flag — do you think Mississippi should adopt a new flag?” Jake Tapper, CNN anchor who moderated the town hall, asked Warren.

“Warren replied with one word — ‘Yes’ — and was met with loud applause from the crowd,” CNN reported on its event.

...

CNN also cited the deadly protest and counter-protest over the removal of a statue of Confederate President Robert E. Lee in Charlottesville, West Virginia, in 2017 that attracted Neo-Nazis and Antifa and resulted in the death of a counter-protester.

Another attendee at the town hall asked:

As a presidential hopeful, do you have any plans on addressing the removal, or lack thereof, of the reminders of this nation’s dark past, or have any plans on preserving the nation’s history in a way that explains it in a more educational sense versus showing praise to the losing side?

CNN reported Warren said she would “support removing Confederate celebrations from federal land and putting them in museums, where they belong.

This is the most self-destructing field of Democrat candidates in the history of anything.

How does she feel about Indian tribes who fought for the Confederacy?

How about Indian tribes who owned black slaves? White slaves? Other Indian slaves?

O wait....never mind.

It’s a really good thing this was a CNN sponsored “town hall”...

Conservative Mississippeans would have ran her out on a rail...

CNN pretends to represent Mississippi at their own peril.

It’s not as if she was going to get any votes in Mississippi anyway.

> “Mississippi’s the only state in the country that still has the Confederate battle emblem on the state flag — do you think Mississippi should adopt a new flag?” <

Warren’s answer should have been: “I’m not from Mississippi, so it’s none of my business.”

But Warren is a soft fascist. So of course she would have an opinion. Why not tell the Cherokees what to do while you’re at it, Liz? After all, you claim to be one of them. So I’m sure they’d love to hear from you.

The Land of Dixie? Not in California .. where educations are costly and not bothering with the real history of this nation.

Dixie (CA) School District Leaders May Vote on Name Change

btw.. when’s the Dixie cup and plate boycott start? I don’t want to miss that social justice picnic.

Dunces in her audience also applauded when she said we should get rid of the Electoral College - too impaired to understand that the move would mean those in California, New York, and Texas would be the only people whose votes would mean anything in future presidential elections - talk about disenfranchising the voters......

George Orwell must be rolling in his grave. All that work writing 1984 has not made a damn difference!

As a matter of fact, George Custer may be squirming in his grave!

This woman is a total fraud and shouldn’t be elected on the seat of some village’s water board.

Does she also favor removing Confederate monuments from national battlefields?

She probably knows nothing of the Cherokee participation in the War Between the States.

Ah, if only Mississippi and, indeed, the whole country, were more like Massachusetts.
