I think the nation's views on South Carolina are more positive because of this change.
That doesn't make it any less right to take down the flag, does it?What flag needs to come down in Chicago to stop all the killing up there?
This thread is a microcosm this board on *insert any political issue here*.
Use of mutual exclusivity when it doesn't apply/Straw men/False dilemma. Ignorance. Lack of empathy. Trolling. And worst of all, cynicism.
Do. Not. Give. A. Fck.
Glad it's down, but I'm so tired of everybody else outside of the state giving us advice and offering their opinion. Your state has its own problems that are bigger than a flag. Shut the fck up.
*not directed at OP
They can tak e it off the statehouse grounds but they can't take it off my flagpole. Eat it Yankees
I don't think Yankees are the enemy in your battle, all sorts of people across the board wanted this to happen.What do the Yankees have to do with it??? They're playing the Red Sox this weekend. What's your point???

Who said all that?I used to support the flag, but after it killed those 9 people in Charleston, I can't really back it anymore.
And it is a good thing that racism ended at 10am this morning.
Who said all that?
What's gonna be hilarious is when people figure out that removing it didn't miraculously fix the problems in SC - racial or otherwise.
Sure didn't seem to bother all the yanks flooding in here....Until this mess started I honestly forgot it was up there.
I understand removing it. I think it was probably the right call and I am completely okay with it. But does it REALLY impact anyone's life that much?

When the ACC baseball championships and an NCAA championship or two return to South Carolina, you will see that there are benefits to this change. I think the nation's views on South Carolina are more positive because of this change. Maybe I see that more clearly because I don't live in the state.
No, racism won't end overnight. The public schools won't suddenly get better. Jobs won't suddenly be more plentiful. Still, it is a step in the right direction.
Who ever suggested that "removing it WOULD miraculously fix the problems in SC?" But if it is the right thing to do, just do the right thing without expectation of miracles.

It did not offend MOST black South Carolinians.This. It offended most black South Carolinians, that's the only reason I wanted it down. If you aren't from SC, your opinion means nothing.
