Unfortunately Republican politicians are acting in a calculated way in an effort to get minority votes. If they think taking down a few flags from historical monuments is going to accomplish that, I have land in the swamp to sell them.

Or more than likely they finally realize there is zero upside to having their states associated with such a polarizing symbol that represented the worst in us.
Anybody want to guess witch was the largest slave owning state in the union was.........you guest it New York. But that don't count, it's not in the South. You can't harass people from NY because they speak perfect English.
Not during the civil war, it was already a free state and since their side won I doubt they are still fighting unlike the rednecks down here.
I guess we won't be watching re-runs of the Dukes of Hazard anymore will we?
Counting the asterisks I'm guessing hookers? punters? naggers? porkers? hatters? baiters? hunters? It's difficult to decipher words without all their letters.
If you want to harass New Yorkers, connect with someone from Boston, and vice versa.
"The South is big on heritage and history , just not our history". Clementa Pickney, slain by the gun of a confederate flag waving racist. So those of you that insist this flag is not a sign of brutality but rather merely a symbol of southern heritage perhaps there is a compromise . Let's place a statute of Nat Turner on that public ground. We don't even need a special flag for him. How about a broken whip or a noose.. A whip that he grew tired of. Or better yet let's show some grace and not put that symbol of the very worst of our country in the face of those of us that are deeply offended.
Great idea! The likeness of Nat Turner would make a great addition to any southern public space.
