Mississippi lawmakers who want to remove the Confederate battle emblem from the state's flag appear to have enough votes in the state Legislature to make the change, a senior state lawmaker said Friday.
State Rep. Robert Johnson III, the Democratic leader of the state House of Representatives, told NBC News that all the needed votes “appear to be there."

Thank you Nimrata Randhawa.
She doesn’t care about our history because it’s not her history.
The flag adopted by the Confederacy in 1865.
Ok so the issue is settled. What’s next-reparations?
Better
Oh, and by the way, say goodbye to the “Ole Miss Rebels”.
No doubt.
I am ambivalent on this.....It’s their flag, if they choose to change it based on a reflexive kneejerk reaction to the current furor of the moment, have at it.
If they were serious about a thoughtful process though they would offer it up on a referendum in the next election.
If Mississippi wants to remove the Battle flag of the army of Northern Virginia from their state flag it is their right to do so.
Sure. During the time you asked and I posted, the money we owe has gone up. Like a gas pump number (or our taxes in most cities and states).
“ Country singer and Mississippi native Faith Hill tweeted Thursday that the flag is a “direct symbol of terror for our black brothers and sisters.””

Well, that’s their (leftists) ‘dirty secret’ ... they never give an amount that will enough, because, you see, it’s NEVER enough.
Why don’t Republicans demand that Dems always give a finite amount, for whichever hand out, er, program they’re proposing....then work the number (down), from there?
And I say they don't. So, who's right? Too bad NBC never thought to verify the statement...but then, what else is new from those clowns.
They put this to a public vote in 2002 or 2003. About 65 percent voted to keep the flag as it is. You can bet they won’t put it to a public vote again.
What a tool.
What she doesn’t realize is that SHE is a symbol of hate/opression to this PC/leftist organized group.
Pandering will get her nowhere, with any group.
She puts the c*nt in country.
The people hate it.
