The Confederate Flag Day on 3/5/16 had a good response.
One report from Gettysburg caught my attention.
Mr Scott Hancock made a comment to a local news outlet -
"There are plenty of symbols you can choose that don't have the history and present
day connection with racism that that one does."
I guess he has a point, depending on which side of the fence you are on.
But the same report states that the counter protesters started their protest at a statue of
Abraham Lincoln.
Then moved on 2 miles to counter the Pro Flag people.
I wonder how many anti flag protesters know that Abe Lincoln said -
" I, as well as Justice Douglas,
am in favor of the race to which I belong
having the superior position."
Maybe some do and I'm betting many don't !
But I also bet the ones that do and the ones that don't, don't care !
For them it's not History, it's Hate.
They see only what they want to see, and hear only what they want to hear.
I wonder what color the sky is in their world ?
Yessir.
