Hmm..Now that I look up some articles, I think you may have me confused with Casey Nelson. Well, that's not me, and Casey Nelson has no relation to me or my family. My name is Nicole. I have purple hair, extremely liberal views and ideals, and I have certainly never made a petition in regards to the Confederate flag issue. I know, it's hard to believe that a flaming liberal such as myself would live up in the North end of the county, but here I am, I exist. I support things like gay marriage, separation of church and state, equality, increased scrutiny of police with measures such as badge cams, raising the minimum wage, addressing income inequality, etc. You know, all the hippy dippy liberal staples. I'm also an atheist, and registered as an independent. I'm also very likely voting for Bernie Sanders. I find the whole Confederate flag issue to be one great big boring distraction from more serious issues that could address gun violence in this country, like mental health and reasonable gun control measures. I get the feeling you have an entirely different image of me in your head, like I'm one of those weirdos driving around with Confederate flags mounted on the back of my gas-guzzling pick up truck. Well, I'm here to clarify...that's not me! =)
