And once that’s yanked down and another redneck shoots someone what next?

[beelzepug]

Ye gods.

So when someone complains that taking the flag down offends them will they put it back up? This is starting to get ridiculous.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Fly it upside down. Oh wait, it’s symmetrical.

Just wondering if the Mexican flag is flown in public areas and if so, removed just like the Confederate flag.

I wish Tim Scott and Nikki Haly would mention the racist DEMOCRAT that put the confederate flag atop the statehouse in the first place, Governor then long-time senator Fritz Hollings!

[armydawg505]

Did he call for removing the US flag after Newtown and Columbine?

[samtheman]

They should ban 32oz soft drinks while they’re at it.

I'm actually kind of surprised that the Bars and Stars Confederate flag symbol was still even allowed in the state flag of a number of states even AFTER the Civil War ended in 1865. And even more so after the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Still waiting for the Maryland and Illinois flag to be taken down..Maryland had 43 murders in May, obviously caused by a flag

America is hamstrung by the tyranny of minorities.

It’s all about power, not principle.

Barack Obama can say NI**ER but if a white person says it in the same context he/she will be destroyed by the grievance industry led by the government and the press.

The battle flag it isn’t, that flag had a red bar on the right.

[Altura Ct.]

Unity in the GOP is a myth.

[minnesota_bound]

What wusses. The liberals will just find something else to complain about like sports names. Oh wait....

[ponygirl]

Ah, finally an idiotic liberal idea RINOs can leap on board with. Watch the stampede to see who can get to the TV cameras first. Never mind the 1st Amendment freedom of expression. I'd like one of these idiots to explain HOW the banning of a 150-year-old flag would have stopped the mass murder of innocent people by a drug-addled creep?

Interesting how they never seem to have an issue with the ISIS flag.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Tim Scott too?

That is a disappointment fer sho.

[NormsRevenge]

The Rebels is coming The Rebels is coming!!

OH wait. Is Rev Al or Je$$e sitting on the dais too?

Symbology is a curse to man’s psyche and its stability.

Mass induced psychosis..

Nothing new.

So, considering the recent black-on-white crime wave, and also the decades-old black-on-black crime wave in the major cities controlled by black Democrats (but I repeat myself), I call for the repeal of the Martin Luther King holiday. It clearly didn't work, and is a symbol of violence and oppression.

Then we should repeal every single Federal law that has contributed to the destruction of the black (and white) family. That would cut the Federal budget by 90 percent. We could have an excellent and well-funded military with the remaining 10 percent.

The crime rate would also fall by about 75 percent. The economy would boom. Wages of black men would rise by about 300 percent within 5 years. You can thank me later.
