hey 'h8 southerners' it's 'traitors' not 'traders.' And they weren't insurgents VegasJ. you consider american soldiers during the revolution also to be insurgents? Lincoln made it about slavery as a pr move. slavery didn't start in 1861. Good for SC and Miss for sticking it to the feds and political correctness

Why aren't the traders in the south being dealt with violently? Fly that trader flag and have it shoved up your trader ass.

Insurgents under that flag killed more US Army soldiers than Al Qaeda ever could. That never seems to bother anybody.

even the Harlem Globetrotters won't perform there for that reason. they'll drive right through the state to North Carolina. I don't blame 'em

The South didn't pick up arms because of slavery, and SC doesn't fly the battle flag because it hates blacks. Wait until the Stars and Stripes are under pressure because America used to be a slave nation. That's how SC sees it regarding their flag.

Agree with OlGrumpy. I personally don't like the Stars and Bars but let South Carolina do what they want. F***! They aren't doing it to be racist anyway.

But will South Carolina let Gus Johnson sit at their restaurant counters?

I don't live in SC but support their right to fly their flag and to resist all efforts to revise their state's history just to be politically correct. Screw the NCAA; they can't even get the football championship right, so what business do they have legislating state's rights?
