From what I have heard, Justin is a fine young man. Maybe something good can come of this if we can get people like him involved.
He absolutely is and having talked to his better half they have promised to "keep it classy not trashy"!
No dirt or empty beer cans in this truck!

Yes, definitely ride along all the scenic highways. The tourists spending their vacation dollars need to witness this.
Absolutely drive down 331, and please drive down 30a. That will be very Trump like.From WZEP 1460
CONFEDERATE FLAG SUPPORTERS TO RIDE
By: T.H. Merritt
Recent efforts to remove the Confederate Flag have ignited a firestorm among flag supporters and those who oppose it. As Walton County Commissioners prepare to consider whether to remove the flag from the Confederate War Memorial in Defuniak Springs, local residents are taking action.
Santa Rosa Beach attorney Daniel Uhlfelder is petitioning the Commission to remove the flag and presented 1,300 signatures at last week’s meeting.
Meanwhile, 27-year old Walton County native Justin Hammond has organized a Southern Pride Ride this Saturday beginning at 9 AM at the Paxton Community Center and ending at Miramar Beach. Hammond says he has never been involved in any kind of political movement but he felt like he had to do something in the wake of the onslaught of opposition against something he sees as an attempt to destroy southern heritage and culture.
Hammond says about 75 people have already signed up for the event on a facebook page he started called Southern Pride Ride Walton County. He got the idea for the event after seeing over 2,000 people show up for a similar event in Ocala earlier this month.
Walton County Commissioners take up the issue next Tuesday, July 28[SUP]th[/SUP] at 9 AM at their meeting at the Walton County Courthouse. WZEP will have full coverage.

This will put us on the map for ALL the RIGHT reasons. Does anyone have a Confederate Flag for sale. I left mine in Tallahassee not knowing that such an important event is going to happen right here in good ole Sowal. Please leave me a message if you do. All negative comments will be respected with good ole Southern Charm not harm...
Misty, I could not reach Justin. Probably can't do the ride but want to show my pride. I wish we had another week to organize this. I am very busy today but am trying to find as many Confederate Flags as possible for my place on Highway 331. Do you have any suggestions?
If they're coming down 331, they'll get stuck in traffic and not get here until dark.
