Quoting: Astral Goat Rebecca Amani-Dove, the spokeswoman, would not say what type of action was taken against the Glenelg student who displayed the flag while standing at the top of the bleachers during the season opener between Glenelg and River Hill high schools on Friday night. The student was immediately told to take the flag down. “Carrying a Confederate flag is not illegal, but anything that causes disruption is actionable from an administrative perspective,” Amani-Dove said. “Administrative action was taken in alignment with our student code of conduct.” “Public displays of the Confederate Flag evoke division, hate and subjugation -- precisely the opposite of the values we hold in Howard County, and in Maryland,” Howard County Executive Ken Ulman posted on his Facebook page Monday. “We must teach our kids why this is such a hurtful symbol to so many people. We must fight against injustice and intolerance in any form, especially at our schools.” [link to www.washingtonpost.com] We must teach our kids that they cannot dare to do something, even though it is legal. We must make up pretend laws to fit our social objectives even though such laws dn not actually exist and might even be unconstitutional if the legislature tried to implement them. |

And I live in the North. |

It appears that the United States will need to hold Sherman's spirit in reserve as the defeated ghosts of traitors against the Union think they can rise again. |

It used to be on top of the capital building but too many complaints so they moved it to the grounds. Still not good enough. It's history. Nothing more or nothing less. |

Had he used a Mexican flag he would be applauded. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23943453 I am also sick of these idiots who have no clue about the war and the true history and meaning of that beautiful flag. /thread “People have only as much liberty as they have the intelligence to want and the courage to take.” - Emma Goldman |

Quoting: CharlestonSC If they'd make the boycott permanent leave SC altogether would you really mind? Wife (Chinese immigrant) and I (white) have thought about moving there when we retire, seems a nice place. |

If ya'll decide to move here i don't think you would regret it. Beautiful State! Very nice people. I live in Charleston but anywhere to the midlands (Columbia the capital) to the upstate (Greenville) are great cities. The only thing i would do is to look into the rating of the school district you will be residing in. Some are not that great. That is if you have children of course. And if you are not sending them to private schools. Good Luck and hope all is good where ever ya'll end up. |
