HARRISBURG, Ill. - Well, THAT'S taking it to a whole new level.
We received photos this morning at about ten til 8 of a Rebel Flag having been hoisted below Old Glory down at Harrisburg High School.
there has been a lot of hubbub over the Rebel Flag since last Friday, when a student, 18-year-old Trenton Byrd, was asked to turn his t-shirt inside out because it bore a Rebel Flag on front and back, but contained no offensive verbiage alongside it. You can read about the incident at this post here.
Last night, we posted about a Saturday night peaceable assembly in Harrisburg over the matter; you can see it at this post here.
Below is a photo sent to us just prior to 8 this morning.
We'll follow up as the day goes on.
Sent to us at 7:54 this morning, Monday, August 31.
