A prominent attorney admits to taking flags from the graves of soldiers, a move that's sparked both positive reaction and calls for him to be arrested and disbarred. He's also received death threats and hate mail.
The lawyer says his actions are meant to promote unity.
A bag of small Confederate flags sits at Union Springs City Hall. They were removed from graves at an old Confederate cemetery downtown, behind the Red Door Theater, near the intersection of Highway 82 and North Prairie Street.
Myron Penn pulled up the flags with his family on Mother's Day. Penn, a founding partner at Penn & Seaborn Attorneys at Law in Union Springs, who served as state senator for two terms and as chairman of the Bullock County Commission, says he did it for his 4-year-old son.
“The reason why we picked them up is because the image of the flags in our community, a lot of people feel that they're a symbol of divisiveness and oppression of many people in our community,” Penn said. “Especially with the history that that flag and the connotation and negativism that it brings. I would think that no one in our community would have a problem with this or with my actions at all.”

Excellent find. The stinkin’ negro attorney knew d@mn well what he was doing. By his actions he dares whitey to enforce the law.
Teaching his son how to steal from white folks?
An’ if dem crackers complain,jes yell ‘raciss’?
We have room for one flag in America and it ain’t The Stars And Bars or any other flag. It wasn’t The Stars And Bars that was attacked on Dec. 7, 1941 nor was it The Stars And Bars that was raised on Mt. Surabachi in February of 1945 and it sure as Hell wasn’t The Stars And Bars that was attacked on Sept. 11, 2001.
Did you know that the flag on December 7, 1941 looked different than the flag on September 11, 2001?

I stand by my comment.
A supposedly smart person doesn’t realize that the Confederate Flag is not about racism. This ‘smart’ person doesn’t know that blacks owned slaves AND THEY WERE IN THE BUSINESS OF SLAVE TRADING IN AFRICA!!!
OH NOOOOOOOOO .... You’re going to cause Microrages all over the place.
Attorney Penn: Teaching your son to vandalize? I hope he’ll be disbarred.
Unity? Hell No... IT WAS VANDALISM!!
Yeah, it had 48 stars instead of 50. It was The Stars And Stripes. What kind of stupid bs are you trying to put out?
Which is to saying you’re saying nothing. Previously or now.
“what flag matters to you?”
What matters is a sense of history, of heritage, of honor. Only immigrants are now allowed to revere their heritage. Ask some Republican candidates. What would happen if Rick Perry, while announcing his candidacy, majored his Southern heritage? Not to mention his Christian heritage. The “Dukes of Hazard” car had a Confederate flag on its roof. No one thought a thing about it. Now, all the wusses have been thoroughly conditioned to get their panties in a wad over it.
I just went to google and I googled up “google, and I got over 7 billion results.

No, my comment is not relevant, but, then again, neither was yours.
Desecration of graves is a serious offense. He should be disbarred.
‘’Holier-than Thou’’? What a joke and what a way to skewer conversation, really. Who ever seceded from the Union and stared a civil war under the POW-MIA flag? You’re pathetic.
This is about the veterans in their cemetery. There is nothing wrong with the Rebel Flag by their graves.
And if anyone of them had ever been a Klan member would it be alright to display a hood?
Another idiot
