Rather nasty comments floating about in this thread...

..No matter, I also live in SC and haven't heard anything about this "holiday" yet.

Look at the main headline on the Front page of The State today, or go to their website online, or visit the Drudge Report.

You can't miss it.

Born in Atlanta, lived in Columbia for fifty years except for 1975, when I lived in Klamath Falls Oregon. And loved it, I might add.

My Mother's family comes from here and goes back to 1741.

Interesting. You seem to have a lot of hate for the state you live in.

No question about it. I'm tired of living in a land of unbridled bigotry.

When they had a contest to select a motto to go on SC license plates a couple of years ago, I sent them mine:

"Visit us and feel better about your state".

They didn't use it, but that didn't change a thing. I have @ 3 years left until I can retire and go far West, and I'm counting the minutes.

Yeah, lefties always consider those who disagree with them, "ignorant" or "bigots." I'm not terribly shocked by your ridiculous statements.

I'm sure your positive outlook will be missed.

It is the way it is used here. Trust me.

The biggest problem is, the majority of the ignorant bastards who parade it around to stir up trouble invariably drag out the Confederate Naval Jack to wave around instead of the genuine CBF. They are as dumb as they are racist. Or is that redundant?
