That SC flag used to fly from the SC Capitol dome
The flag was moved from the dome of the statehouse in 2000 as part of a deal negotiated by then-Sen. Glenn McConnell, owner of a Confederate memorabilia shop, with a handful of black Democratic legislators. -
so says WSJ
It is on a much lower flag pole, permanently affixed.
I have no doubt it will be taken down, if only because Lindsey Graham is a Pres. candidate.
