The Next Time You're in Mississippi or, Confederadication Strikes Again

The next time you're in the State of Mississippi, you will notice something different.  The state flag of some 120 years is no more.  It was changed by the state legislature and signed off on by the governor.

As you know, the flag featured a Confederate Army of Northern Virginia battle flag in the union and the rest of it was the three bars on the original Confederate National Flag, the one in reality called the Stars and Bars.

Of course, with all this Confederadication (Confederate eradication) going on in the United States these days, the flag came under attack.  And, of course, like every other Confederate thing, is getting swept away.

I am of the belief that the state flag issue of Mississippi should have been up to a referendum vote across the whole state instead of a group of politicians making the decision.

This issue was put up to a vote before and the people of Mississppi voted to keep the flag as it was.
