Hung for an hour before someone took it down.

Its not just in the South.

It is about race.

What an ugly flag.

1. It actually enhances the memorial to have that wretched rag hanging on the tip of Shaw's sword.

I bet they didn't think of that when they put it there.

2. Better yet, have it impaled on the sword.

5. Light that bastard on fire:

3. I plan to post something soon regarding those flags, racism, etc.

I hope some people will find it interesting at least why racism and that flag should go into the trash heap of history once and for all in this country (from a "southerner's viewpoint).

4. My great, great grand daddy, John Jackson Paine,

was a general leading African-American troops in the Civil War. I'm glad that nice lady took that Klan flag down.
