The central question is why you are upset about the flag leaving government flagpoles.

“The central question is why you are upset about the flag leaving government flagpoles.”

1.) The whole thing is a liberal media ginned up frenzy.

2.) In this case, an atrocity is being used to advance a leftest political agenda. The Confederate flag had nothing to do with it, no more that the Gold tee shirt the demon was wearing, or the watch, for that matter.

3.) Government is supposed to be of the people, by the people, for the people. If the people want a particular flag on their government flagpole, so be it. A government flagpole represents the will of the people, not the government. In the United States, historically, the government is appointed by the will of the people.

4.) Laws and decisions are supposed to be made by deliberative bodies in a deliberative fashion and not based on the emotion of the moment.
