I went down to the SC Statehouse on the morning of the day the flag came down after the Nikki Haley over-reaction to the Charleston church shootings.
I remember the dead calm that morning, there was absolutely no breeze and all the flags just hung there totally limp.
there was the atmosphere of an impending party. Certain people were out in lawn chairs. I bumped into Jesse Jackson Sr... I asked him how (felon) Jesse Jr. was doing, he didn’t offer a response. Must have been the sarcastic tone of my voice in the question...
Maybe I’ll stop by for today’s event to tweak that negative memory of the last one.
oops, that article and event date is over a week old, maybe i’ll go next year.
