Confederate Flag Graffiti Strikes Hendersonville Tennessee!

Confederate Flag Graffiti Strikes Hendersonville Tennessee!



  Whether you’re for or against the Confederate Flag, it’s a hot button issue right now!  It’s sad that even in the year 2015 racism still exists! 
 
This instance of Confederate Flag graffiti was first spotted Saturday August 1st, likely done the night before.  They managed to paint four confederate flags, and if you notice the writing on the left says “If You Don’t Like The South Get Out.”  This graffiti, and the Confederate Flag’s meaning, can be interpreted in many ways.  Some argue it symbolizes racism while others claim it’s a display of their heritage.  The part that bothers me the most is the, “If You Don’t Like The South Than Get Out!”  That’s basically saying that, if you don’t agree with me than leave.  That’s NOT what our founders and this country stands for!  We have a system where every person has a right to HIS OR HER opinion.  One vote each, and whatever set of idea’s gets the most votes sets the rules for the society that we all live in.
 
So is this graffiti going too far?!?  What’s your opinion?  Like, Share, and leave your comments and thoughts below!  Thanks for reading!
