Its not about the flag. Its about seeing how much the Marxists can get away with by oversensationalizing a horrific event that they had no part of and saying “you owe me” (once again) like a little manipulative spoiled brat sister who caught you with your hand in the cookie jar. In this instance It just happened to be a shooting by a deranged white boy hopped up on psychotropic drugs who was holding a Confederate flag in online posts; a boy that was raised by liberal family members who wore nipple rings and were probably covered in tattoos...: )
Had it been a black boy that did the shooting with the same circumstances no flags would have ome down. In fact, the leftists would have cheered him on because it was Christians that were shot.
It was those resisting expansion of civil rights in the 50s and 60s who chose the battle flag as the symbol under which they fought.
To my mind that’s a much better reason for removing it from public space than its Civil War history, where it was only peripherally associated with racism.
Thank God the jerk off wasn’t a Tea Party supporter. There would be FEMA concentration camps going up all over the South. Jeh Johnson and his welcoming committee, “What we have here is failure to communicate”.
And there are more Confederate Battle Flags about in South Carolina now than ever before.
Eff you, ø!
I wonder if Nikki Haley has any political future in South Carolina after the complete cave in by the GOP?
I suppose that now the flag is gone in South Carolina, all hatred and violence will hence forth decease. Wishful thinking!!!!

Maybe they were "exercising their freedom of expression."
The idea that they couldn't change a fifty-year old law smacks of "self-censorship."
