A very tasteful statue and marker which should offend no one.

Talking about over reacting. There are men in jail for murder because they listened to rap music. Why isn't rap music being banned?

To me, the Confederate flag never represented oppression or slavery but was rather a prideful depiction of the South that remains too often denigrated by outsiders repeating tired old negative folklore that has no factual basis.

Also need to bring back the Flag to Maple Hill Cemetery. Common people lets grow up. Some may consider me a carpet bagger.

It's not about the flag, it's about OUR history. Leave the monument alone.

Heritage not hate. The proverbial "slippery slope" is already forming. Once all the traces of the Confederacy are gone what's next? Louis Farrakhan wants the American flag to come down too. He says African Americans have caught plenty of hell under that flag too. Do a search on YouTube and you can hear him say it for yourself.

Leave our heritage alone. The flags of the south are nor racist or terrorists and have no dog in this fight.
