If they would expend half as much effort moving on with their lives, improving their lives, they would find that there, actually, is very little in the great country to be truly offended about. They will feel “proud of themselves” for having made public officials bow to their whims and then, those people will move on, looking for the next issue for which to be offended.

There are those who will search for any issue for which to be offended, in hopes of being granted their 15 minutes of fame. The fact that some choose to view the flag as a racist symbol, does not, in fact, make it a racist symbol. Anyone who thinks otherwise would do themselves a favor to educate themselves. Its about states rights and proud southerners, both black and white, who found against a government who would seek to rule them and deprive them of their rights to rule themselves. To give in to the ignorance of others gives proof to your own ignorance. I am very disappointed in the decision by Mayor Posey to bow down to the ignorance of those who do not care enough to educate themselves about the true meaning of this flag he has seen fit to ban from the streets of our city during the Christmas Festival, a time when this city that has stood strong by its traditions for so many years, to celebrate the beliefs of proud southerners.
