I can't get my head around why it flies over South Carolina's capitol building.

I figure my lack of understanding is cultural. What am I missing about the "Southern heritage" debate?


So Fedzilla knows that it's not the end all be all of American government.

The real question here is why Haley is pulling a Pence and capitulating to Obama and friends' social engineering tactics.


Yes. It is symbolic to many states' (and individuals') right to push back and resist an oppressive authoritarian federal government.

And I agree that it's unwise of South Carolina governor Nikki Haley to oppose the symbolic and actual freedom the flag's inclusion represents.
