Lawyers from California have cast accusatory eyes on Mississippi, declaring that the state’s Confederate symbol on its flag that’s flown at a Santa Ana display is racist and needs to go.

The Orange County Bar Association has passed a resolution to remove the Mississippi flag from the Santa Ana civic center where it now hangs, along with the flags of all other states, The Los Angeles Times reported.

Members of the group say the Confederate symbol is an outdated relic that represents racism and hatred, The Associated Press reported.

So much for tolerance and embracing and celebrating other diverse cultures and alternatives ways of life, etc. From the land of tolerance, surprise, surprise.

California needs to mind its own business. Each state is sovereign on its own, right? California and New York, especially, need to remember this.

I’m betting the legislators in Miss. are all shaking in their boots and climbing over one another to try to make some lawyers in Commiefornia happy.

"along with the flags of all other states"????

Maybe Santa Ana should replace all of the state flags with rainbow flags and change it's "Plaza of the Flags" to "Plaza of the Fags". After all, this is in California.

I wonder if this is part of the conversation in Mississippi about the Kalifornia lawyers:

“I betcha he's even got a Commie flag Tacked up on the wall inside of his garage He's a snake in the grass I tell ya guys He may look dumb but that's just a disguise”
