As far as voting to keep it, I guess that depends upon who's allowed to vote and whose votes are counted. I was raised in the south too.designing wallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003391063934306188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856747845173024887.post-39257834148620714132015-06-26T12:17:33.159-04:002015-06-26T12:17:33.159-04:00I grew up in Mississippi.

I've even seen black people wearing confederate flag bandanas on their heads. A few years ago the state was furious that people took issue with the emblem and voted to keep the symbol as a state cultural icon. Today they are considering removing it. It wasn't but a few years ago (2013) that they finally ratified the 13th amendment banning slavery.ayeM8yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07258615853099164514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856747845173024887.post-12534168579644573022015-06-26T11:13:47.163-04:002015-06-26T11:13:47.163-04:00Bravo Wally.

Some people use their freedom to hate and do ill instead of pursuing benign or even noble things.designing wallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003391063934306188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856747845173024887.post-201885278313517882015-06-26T10:40:32.699-04:002015-06-26T10:40:32.699-04:00I have one friend on fb that says "if we stop...I have one friend on fb that says "if we stop talking about it, it will go away", guess what color and religion he is. My parents raised me right in regards to these issues so I have been facing them my whole life and they can be overcome, as you say by facing them. When I see a group of young black men on a sidewalk my mind wanders, but I admit it, I don't cross the street and i have always been fine. We as Americans need to face this and admit it and keep walking.designing wallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003391063934306188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856747845173024887.post-43545543893289772922015-06-26T10:21:59.120-04:002015-06-26T10:21:59.120-04:00An extremely well written honest and obviously hea...An extremely well written honest and obviously heartfelt piece Wally.
