Nasty Flag Gone

Yes!   YESSSSSSS!

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves on Tuesday signed the bill retiring the last state flag in the U.S. that featured the Confederate battle emblem, saying, "This is not a political moment to me but a solemn occasion to lead our Mississippi family to come together, to be reconciled, and to move on."

State lawmakers had approved the measure over the weekend before sending the bill to the Republican governor's desk for his signature.

Though a source of division for generations, Mississippi’s flag has come under renewed scrutiny amid nationwide protests against racial injustice that have focused attention on Confederate symbols.

"source of division for generations" -- WHY?  So much pain, hatred, divisiveness for years and years and years.   Why did we let stubbornness rule over common sense?
