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.
The U.S. National Park Service ordered all flags to be taken down at Ft. Sumter in Charleston except for the American flag.
The banners that were removed are neither the traditional Confederate flag that's most typically displayed by individuals, nor is it the battle flag version that currently flies in front of the South Carolina State House. Instead, the flags were the less frequently seen national flags of the Confederacy.
The park service also took down the South Carolina state flag.

How is the National Park Service now going to interpret the Late Unpleasantness at battle sites? That Union forces fired at each other? That they were just having war games? The insanity of political correctness abounds.
we passed that point. Our Forefathers were shooting by now.
True, one would think by now that a whole lot of pushback would be happening.
Barely a whimper.
It’s not stupidity, it is erasing history. The history of the United States is being erased. This works in conjunction with TPP.
Death of American History. No longer a country of truth. This will be our undoing!

America surrenders her heritage and history to pimple-faced Reichstag boy and a Marxist Muslim from Mombasa.
Does this mean the civil war is finally over in the south?

The Director of the NPS is a big promoter of the climate change myth.
His boss, Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell, is former CEO of REI and a big environmentalist. One way to protest is not to spend at REI.
It doesn’t stop with the Left as they are like sharks that smell blood in the water.
All together now, prols. "The Gay Pride Flag flew over Fort Sumter during the Civil War. The Confederate Flag never flew over Ft. Sumter. The Confederate Flag never existed."
I don't blame them so much as I do the Liberal Democrat Union member Media out of New York and Los Angeles that deliberately misleads the public.
If they weren't doing what they were doing, the public would not be making stupid decisions.
And of course, one of the supporters of Union state slavery makes his appearance.
Gear up, people.
I dare say, video/theatrical skills would make better weapons for this fight.
This has been going on a long time. You should read how the Union Apologists distort history.
Fear not. 0bama has Homeland Security fast tracking H1B visas so ISIS members can come in and blow up Stone Mountain, GA.
