The dispute began Thursday after Auburn City Councilman Arthur L. Dowdell removed a handful of Confederate flags from grave sites at the cemetery, saying they offended him and others and were reminders of racism. I have read the Constitution front to back many times and I have yet to find the part that says Councilman Dowdell has a legal protection against being offended. They weren't his flags, they weren't his graves, it isn't his cemetery. He should have kept his mitts to himself.

Absolutely!!!!
Neither the contitution, nor even the Bible , are meant to protect anyone from offences! Our response to that which
is proof of our tolerance and maturity.
This is the same claim of those that are offended by the message of Christ, and of God, that want to censor all evidence and presentation of that liberty.
