Governor Set To Remove Confederate Flag

[The Northbreather]

Faux news says there will be a press conference 30 minutes from now...

Dylann Roof race war inciting successful.

[AuH20]

Why does our so-called 'side' always give in to these blood suckers? $#@! needs to stop. It's not about a stupid piece of fabric. It's about playing their stinking game. Stop playing their game. Tell them to $#@! off.

[AuH20]

Lindsey Graham and RINO Tim Scott to follow. Tim Scott is effing horrible. He needs to resign after the TPP vote.

[tod evans]

SC can do as they please.....

[juleswin]

Not a fan of changing the way things are because of a lunatic but I should be able to sleep well at night just as long as they don't outlaw the damn piece of material design.

[The Northbreather]

And PC wins

[wizardwatson]

SC can do as they please.....

SC is doing as Dylann Roof pleased.

I read his manifesto. He's the type of person that would totally see this as a victory.

[enhanced_deficit]

This will open the door for other violence victims to get flag poles decorations changed.

Considering voices in media leading this call, there may be reason to suspect SWCbaggery or other such motives. Neocons at WaPo wrote 27 editorials calling for (racially motivated?) attack on Iraq in 2003:

Nikki Haley just showed her tremendous political upside
Washington Post (blog)

Leading neocon and AIPAC's ally SWC Lindsey Graham has joined the call, very funky given his track record of supporting bloody projects that resulted in killing/occupation of very large number of colored people.

There is some more politics/hypocrisy apparent too as controversial SC governor recently made this headline becoming first in US to support alleged apartheid occupation/oppression based on chosen race dogma in mid east:

South Carolina becomes first US state to take action against anti-Israel boycotts
WASHINGTON – South Carolina’s governor has signed into law a bill to stop efforts to boycott, divest and sanction Israel on Thursday afternoon, in a first for the nation on a statewide level.
While South Carolina is the first state to adopt such a measure as law, several others are close behind: Illinois lawmakers passed similar legislation last month, also with unanimous support from state representatives.
“Discriminatory boycotts have historically been used as a form of economic warfare to forward the purposes of hatred and bigotry. The tactics employed by the Nazis serve as a poignant example,” Clemmons said in a prepared statement. “In this day and age, no group better demonstrates this fact than the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement in its effort to harm our great ally, Israel.”

Well, good. This "issue" was never anything more than a silly distraction, and I'm glad South Carolinians are finally going to put it to rest.

[phill4paul]

Does the governor have the authority? Seems like it would have to go through the State House to me.

[milgram]

Requires 2/3 legislative support.

No. She does not have the authority. The General Assembly would have to vote on it and it would require 2/3 majority. Session ends pretty soon and I can't imagine they'd want to take something like this up at the last minute (though ramming it down at the last minute is the Left's preferred way for getting things like this done).

PC is anti-liberty.

[juleswin]

PC is anti-liberty.

Don't forget civility, courtesy, chivalry etc etc. Its weird how a lot of people on the Liberty tree forum conduct themselves in a politically correct manner in some many ways without even knowing it.

I remember all the uproar that did not happen when someone was temp banned for calling another member "sugar tits".

[thoughtomator]

It's not going to happen. That flag is not a symbol of hate or slavery, to the people who adhere to it - it's a symbol of giving the middle finger to meddling northerners.

My fear is that more South Carolinians will start flying this flag in their yards now.. there were already many doing this in southern states.

I say we fly this flag over the SC capitol.



who's with me?????

[juleswin]

But why? unless somehow you believe it is the African American equivalent of the Confederation flag which I don't think it is. How about everyone just fly their own damn flag and quit complaining.

I guess you dont get the sarcasm.

With this.



Just the way the founding fathers envisioned it when they set up our "inclusive" democracy.

[Zippyjuan]

How about one of these? Freedom of expression and all that.

[juleswin]

I guess you dont get the sarcasm.

Ofc not, I didn't think you were serious about proposing SC fly that flag in their state house. But I just thought you believe that it was somehow the African American equivalent of the confederate flag and that was you used it to write your sarcastic post.

[RonPaul4Prez2012]

With this.

Now Walmart is caving.

We never want to offend anyone with the products that we offer. We have taken steps to remove all items promoting the confederate flag from our assortment — whether in our stores or on our web site,” said Walmart spokesman Brian Nick. “We have a process in place to help lead us to the right decisions when it comes to the merchandise we sell. Still, at times, items make their way into our assortment improperly — this is one of those instances.

What about movies? How far are we going to take this America?

Doubt it SC would go for this.. but this flag seen been sighted in NY already.

Id like to see this in the bible belt

Gotta have this one.



After all, a Socialist paradise is what James Madison had in mind when he created the framework for the US Constitution.

[Carlybee]

My concern is that it basically is trying to sweep the history of the civil war under the rug. Yes, slavery was horrible, yes many people who love the confederate flag may very well be racists, but there were also atrocities committed against the confederates during the war as well like being allowed to starve and freeze to death while captured in union POW camps. Not all of those soldiers were slave owners...many of them were teenagers not even old enough to enlist. One of my own distant relatives fought on the side of the union and used to raid the camps of his own townspeople and rob and murder them. There are a lot of stories that will just no longer matter because only one side of the story will matter and once again, history will get re-written.
