Can't fly the Flags of our two greatest heroes on their day!!
The City of Lexington has banned Confederate flags. The ban will mostly affect the annual celebration of Lee-Jackson Day in January when a large parade is staged through downtown to mark the birthdays of the two Confederate leaders who are buried in Lexington VA.
BOYCOTT!!!
Southerns should continue to visit Lee Chapel, and Jackson's home and grave, but should avoid buying food, gas, hotel rooms, or anything else in City of Lexington. VA. until the flag ban is lifted. ~ SWR's the29thtn
We should FLOOD Lexington VA with flags at every opportunity and not spend one thin dime in the damned town. If a business wants OUR business and not the effete academics, let the owner fly the First (or Second or Third) National and we'll know to go there. Meanwhile, we should do what the blacks did to end Jim Crow: boycott, boycott, boycott, BOYCOTT!! ~ SWR's Lady Val

Absolutely and hold int in Buena Vista.
As I understand it, Confederate flags aren't banned but the city ordinance prohibits their display on flagstaffs attached to city-owned light posts. Still reason enough to spend no money downtown....
Flags For Heroes is a PREMIER Fundraising event for Non Profit organizations. People in your community are given the ability to nominate a HERO of their choice and a American Flag will be flown in their honor.,FLAGS FOR HEROES Fundraiser
