Political Factoid

Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) continued
to represent, defend, and vigorously
celebrate the greatest act of rebellion*
against the United States
... until the Charleston church
shooting in June of 2015
created such a outrage that
she could no longer defend
the Confederate battle flag.
* Confederate forces fired upon Fort Sumter
near Charleston, South Carolina, April 12, 1861.
 
South Carolina did more to advance nullification
and secession than any other Southern state.
 
cf. 10423, 10422
