Charleston, SC (WLTX) - The historic site where the first shots of the Civil War were fired is no longer flying versions of the Confederate flag above it.

Instead, the flags were the less frequently seen national flags of the Confederacy.
The park service also took down the South Carolina state flag.

South Carolinians need to start considering secession...again.
Insanity? Or just an American version of Sharia?
it reminds me of the soviet Union, removing all images of former officials after they fell out of favor. Or maybe the Taliban blowing up the Buddha statues in the desert.
Or ISIS destroying any and everything they disagree with.
Hang on, it is going to get worse before it gets better.
As for me, I will be locked, loaded and hunkered down.
Or the abyss...
This is a nation of herbivores. There will be no pushback that the Left cannot handle.

Are we rapidly approaching our 19 April, 1775 moment?
I believe we are.
Gear up, people.
A bit of both it looks like.
You, as always, are correct. Our Forefathers were shooting before now.
Are we gonna have to shell the darn place into submission AGAIN?
I was thinking more on the lines of March 5th, 1770...
