I am unable to attend the meeting tomorrow so please speak of new and read this at the meeting. I am a black American with no family ties to this monument so this is why my opinion means more. This flag should remain as a memorial to the service mean who lost their lives fighting for states rights and independence not slavery. Had the war been about slavery they would have taken the deal they were proposed to stay with the union and get to keep the slaves the south turned it down. Society and people with agendas have madeb this into a racist symbol. Please let it fly show others you can't be bullied into making the decision liberal point pusher want.

Dont blame an inanimate object for someones actions. Might as well say his shoes should be banned for walking him to the masacre.

Please keep the flag as it is now at the Confederate memorial. This is really a First Amendment issue. The flag is a form of speech. There is no constitutional right not to be offended. In fact, free speech guarantees that some will be offended. You can't have both censorship and free speech. Norman Turner Lt. Col. USAF Ret Attorney at Law Ret Former CA Superior Court judge

The confederate flag flies simply as a memorial to honor the fallen soldiers enlisted from the southern states. It's no different than flying Rebel flags at northern memorials. Wake up Americans before it is too late! Americans stopped burning and banning books long ago and this is just as idiotic.
