Take Down the Confederate Flag - The Atlantic
South Carolina's Confederate Flag Not Lowered to Half-Staff After Massacre - NBC News

The South Carolina Confederate flag must be taken down now. The flag that Dylann Roof embraced, which many South Carolinians embrace, endorses the violence he committed. It is a symbol of white supremacy. Germany does not allow the flying of the Nazi flag and South Africans no longer fly the apartheid flag proudly. This monstrosity must come done.

Dylan was/is a nut case who should have been in an institution....but no, the liberals don't want to address the issue of mental health and people who should be in institutions away from the public....same with the landa guy in CT


btw...the actual American flag embraces MORE violence, why are you not asking for it to come down


the confederate flag has ZERO to do with what you posted....

I do agree with the bolded.

Why have we closed nearly all of our mental health facilities? Do we think SSRIs are a substitute?

More calls for free speech restrictions from the far left. Who's surprised?

Obviously it means something else to a lot of people in that state, why should only your interpretation of it matter?

So, should Roof not go on trial since this was caused by the flag? How do we prosecute this flag?
