Leave the name alone. A rebel is someone who doesn't conform.

Taking the "Rebel" name from Byrnes, would be just a stupid as removing it from the movie title "Rebel Without a Cause". Of course the airheads who want to change is ARE without a cause.
There is NOTHING wrong with the name REBELS!!!!!
I fully SUPPORT NOT changing it!!!!

I am signing my name to disagree with the changing of the mascot's name for James F. Byrnes High School. Rebels has nothing to do with hate or discrimination. It is time someone used their common sense and stop the madness.

Erasing history is wrong and renaming mascots for the sake of political correctness is just silly.

The word rebel does not necessarily imply Confederate ideals. There are rebels fighting all over the world.

I do not agree with changing the school mascot! To even make this argument is petty and vindictive! It will destroy relationships amongst the kids; dividing them over issues they have already overcome through their innocence. This actions is teaching hate not preventing it!!!
