Looks like she did the Job that needed to be done
COLUMBIA, South Carolina (AP) — The Confederate flag has been temporarily removed from in front of the South Carolina Statehouse.
A black woman was about halfway up the more than 30-foot steel flagpole just after dawn Saturday when State Capitol police told her to come down. Instead, she continued up and removed the flag before returning to the ground.

and when she got to the ground, she was arrested, charged with defacing a monument.
The flag was back in place within 30 minutes.
But hey, her name will be remember,
for about 3 of her scheduled 15 minutes of fame.
