My guess is he is telling business the state is closed for conventions.
whitewash, that's appropriate. Its also what they are doing by not including the slavery word.
Come on bud...you think the gamers and golfers give 2 shakes about black slavery?
I think corporate boards get excited easily. If some protest movement takes off the state could lose millions all for a symbolic feel good F you to the opposition. It's a stupid move by the team that wants us to believe they are business savvy and pro small government. It's not like they needed to lock down the rebel flag voting block.
Nobody...and I mean nobody is going to bother protesting anything in Mississippi...Jessie and Al wouldn't dare set foot down there.
Cool. We should have a celebration every year where we tear down and burn confederate flags. And maybe hang the people flying them in their place.
Then like today, it only favored the well to do, as most poor farmers couldn't afford slaves.
which would certainly be worn as a badge of honor (courage) to these good ol' boys. I respect Mississippi as it holds up the rest of the US in so many ways.
This is tragic from an emotional/human interest point of view, but it's true. Humans are solely responsible for being inhumane. What is a common denominator in their ability to be inhumane without hesitation? Greed and revenge. You bring in those two variables and humans become inhuman (by the measure of what most would agree is humane) in a hurry.
Yes, why do we. Is it not because we thought we were wronged and want to avenge that wrong doing? See the problem with honoring the voluntary war to protect slavery yet?
