We now all know how the S.C. legislators voted. I'd like to see how the residents of S.C., and only S.C., felt. My guess is that the legislators didn't take that into consideration....they just caved in to PC.
I'd be interested as well. Although I think the lawmakers had other motivations:

Some South Carolina lawmakers and their families were getting death threats Wednesday as they debated whether to take the Confederate flag down from its place of honor in the front of the State House.
Redneck? Sounds like racial insult. No it will put off people who are tired of PC and culture cleansing.
This! Just more distractions and continuing to divide us, while they and their elitist friends continue to destroy the economy, and further erode our individual liberties!
OK, the
SC legislature yielded to the hate/racist lobby. It figures, they were making the most noise.
Once again, "The squeaky wheel always gets the grease!" holds true.
Nothing new here, just move along...
Of course, those who were against an antique flag were not racist or hateful!
Oh, no....
Huh wonder what this will do when it comes to a modern southern strategy. Oh 2016 is shaping up nicely.

What?
Who's forcing you to stop flying the flag? The state isn't going to fly it anymore, but ignoramuses remain as free to flag the flag today as they were yesterday.
No one is coming to your trailer park to take away your flag.
It is absurd that a state was flying it in the first place. Makes about as much sense as if parts of Germany decided to fly the Nazi flag to remind everyone that they still hate the Jews and commemorate the great work of the SS.
LOL at the female house member that was almost in tears saying the people of SC have demanded the flag come down...the CNN poll I saw had 57% of America seeing it as a symbol of heritage and 33% seeing it as racist. I'm guessing the split is more like 65/25 in SC.
Yes, the majority of whites in SC probably support this symbol of racism., Luckily there is more to SC than these conservative supporters of hate symbols... The results of this effort proves such..

If you're not careful Donald Trump is going to set the strategy.
