Been to The Old Dominion many a time-a great Commonwealth. Thought I'd pass this along:



It just got replaced with a 30' x 50' flag on a 119 foot flagpole:



Virginia Flaggers Raise Largest Flag Yet

Bravo. But the fact that the vote succeeded in the first place, in Danville...it's only a matter of time.

Yup the cancer is spreading. A guy has a large Navy Jack flag and a civil war era VA state flag on tall poles in his back yard right at the 64/295 interchange if you are heading east on 64 you can see it.

Danville city is pretty much a majority of democrats.  The surrounding county is very republican.  It doesn't surprise me that the flag ban passed, as there are a few spineless members of city council down there who were worried people's feelings might get hurt when they see the flag flying at the Sutherlin Mansion.

Born and raised in the Midwest, but I've been calling Virginia my home for over two decades.

I don't even have the heritage aspect to be mad about, but it still angers me to see the hatred of history displayed by the left.

Again, I'm not a Virginian by birth, but even I can see the symbol of independence, culture and history.

I'm honestly astounded by the last five years and the push to ban the Confederate Flag. To me, that's like Wisconsin being offended by being known for cheese, or Utah offended by people think they're only there for skiing.

Good for these guys.

I don't fly it, but I hate people that want it gone.

The entire war was in line with American values, regardless of the outcome. Self governance.

Everyone knows the south lost; sadly, I fear most people think it was a war over slavery. It never was.
