One member of the Sons of Confederate veterans, the group established by Confederate veterans to protect the honor and heritage of their efforts, has stated that the SCV will put up Confederate flags all over the state and especially in Columbia. This really stirred up the old hornets nest.
Now, the division commander of the state says that is an option, but the member was giving his own personal opinion. The response will be determined at the annual state meeting.
It appears that South Carolina's legislature and governor have no intentions of getting involved with this divisive issue.
I took a look,and voted myself, on a poll attached to a local newspaper article. A total of 37 wanted the flag removed from the capitol grounds. While 152 wanted it to remain.
