No Marching For You!!

Let's file this under things that really burn my butt.

The May 22nd Morehead (Ky) News reported that the Morehead Sons of Confederate Veterans Camp were not allowed to march in the Ironton, Ohio Memorial Day parade. No reason was given at the time for the refusal.

But, later, the coordinator of the event said that only the US flag should be flown and he had a problem with Confederate uniforms and memorabilia.

The SCV camp marched in the Morehead parade instead.
