Is someone trying to outlaw the Rebel Flag or something? That keeps coming up.

I seriously doubt that someone is trying to get it outlawed, that sounds silly to me.

They are trying to remove it from the SC flag. They already removed it from the GA flag, which caused a lot of grief because they did it in private and all of a sudden, we had a new flag flying. What's so hypocritical about it is that the new flag actually HAD the rebel flag ON it!

Now there's yet a THIRD flag that started flying last week.

The rebel flag is also not on clothing (T-shirts) in most schools, but it's on Confederate license plates.

It's a mess. No one I know that likes the "rebel" flag is racist, just proud of their heritage. I blame the big stink over it on all the yankees moving here.
