I wrote an objection letter to the Baltimore Sun as well as the local paper here in Florida [letters to the editor] I admonished the fact that people are trying to change history and if they want to address issues that are offensive they should deal with the here and now. A good place to start would be todays music that talks of killing police officers, rape, gang violence, the use of the "N" word. They should leave alone the things that should not be changed. Things that are a part of our history. The letter was printed in the local paper, but I don't know if the Baltimore paper used it. I think that it contains some important points. Points that may be used in defense of the Missippi State Flag. Should you desire, I will gladly send you a copy of my letter. submit: submit --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Attachment Filename: C:\archives\governor\mail\Governor Musgrove\_attach\Comments to the Governor 86\Mime.822
