Long ago they should have just replaced it with the original confederate flag. It does not have the Klan association and is just as valid a tribute to the men who fought in the civil war.Ironically, I doubt this would have been the issue it was if the SC government had lowered the loser traitor flag to half-mast along with the other flags at the State Capitol grounds. And when they finally lowered it completely, everyone could see that their "we can't lower it, it's fixed" excuse was bullshit. PR nightmare.The union was being fair when they allowed public display of confederate symbols and monuments to confederate heroes because they felt that southern veterans of the war had been humiliated enough. They are now long dead. However there are still a lot people alive who saw that flag waving on the other side of the civil rights movement. In that same spirit the flag should come down because black people have been humiliated enough.I'm just saying... if we are so suppose to be so upset with the Confederate flag and any mention or statue from the Civil war, then we need fairness.
Justice to Fairness... Truth to Power! All that bull crap!
I just want some of you quote fair people that are being asked to be open minded about this flag... then let's be open minded about the Confederate paraphernalia.
