        @USATODAY @deray @clarionledger And sure, it's Mississippi's flag. But we should have standards. Commemorating traitors is beyond reason.

        @USATODAY @deray @clarionledger Good. We shouldn't commemorate traitors. We can remember evil causes without commemorating them.

        I think California, and by now Oregon, have banned the Mississippi State flag from official display. @USATODAY @deray @clarionledger
