Graffiti's not really helping the cause. All of these things are on their way to coming down, but when people spray paint a statue of a Confederate soldier, all they do is make people more vehemently defend them and extend the amount of time they spend up in Southern towns.

Confederate battle flags greeted President Barack Obama as he arrived here for an overnight stay on Wednesday. Across the street from his hotel in downtown Oklahoma City, as many as 10 people waved the flags as his motorcade arrived. The group stood among a larger group of demonstrators, many of them there to support the president, who is in town ahead of a visit to a federal prison on Thursday as part of his weeklong push on criminal justice issues.
An enigma of a man shaped hole in the wall between reality and the soul of the devil.

I lived there for nearly 30 years and saw one group of KKK people, when I was like 6, and I don't even think they were from there. Between the media and John Grisham you'd think there were white hoods walking down every street.
