Seems like too much. They should have sent a member of the overnight janitorial staff out there to take it down while finishing his bologna sandwich.

I emailed Representative Pitts and thanked him for his efforts to keep the flag up.

How does it feel now that racism is over in South Carolina?
Any kumbayah singing yet? Unicorns and rainbows abound?

Hopefully with dwindling news coverage on this issue, all the side debates about taking down monuments and all will go away.
Things are just getting started my man. Plenty more cleansing to do in SC.
I expect the Confederate monument to be removed within 10-20 years.

Did you hurl any racial slurs his way?

Mike Pitts with his "filibuster by amendment". He may look bad to many in this state, but he probably secured reelection in his district for many terms to come.
You know, those same people that I talked to today were convinced that Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, and Lindsay Graham were done in political life after supporting this move. I disagreed with them.
On the local level, some Republicans will be voted out because they voted for this (especially in the Upstate), but statewide and nationally, the Republicans that supported this look good.

I'll chain myself to that monument before they tear it down.
I ran across this really old picture of the state house with that monument. It has been there forever.

Haley only did this to secure her next political stop, either as a VP nominee or an ambassador somewhere. National GOP leaned on her and her tears sprang from knowing she was done if she didn't deliver. IMO
For a host of reasons, I am finished with the Republican Party.

No offense, but can anyone give a decent haircut in that state?

No you won't. You'll sit back and do nothing while Rev Jackson clouds your view of the ceremony again.
