[QUOTE="brett636, post: 1699590, member: 249"] I know there seems to be some controversy of the Confederate battle flag being flown on the SC capital building, and after much thought I can't come up with any good reason why it should be there. First off a government building should fly the colors it is loyal too, and to fly the confederate flag is showing at least some level of loyalty to what the confederate states stood for. Secondly, the flag was not flown in SC until the early 60s when democrats controlled the south. I see this as yet another Republican led government having to reverse the racist policies put in place by their democrat predecessors. The flag won't be forgotten, but it has its place and time to be shown and that is not on a government building alongside the Stars and Stripes. [/QUOTE]
