Your government at work: Confederate flag is verbotten. Michigan state senator denies his face mask is a Confederate flag. Says it's more like a Kentucky or Tennessee flag, even though he is a Michigan state senator. But the mask does not look like the Kentucky state flag. Or much like the Tennessee state flag. Then he said we need to know US history, and that's part of US history. Then he said we need to know what that flag stands for. And we must never do those atrocities again. Then he changed his story again, and said it was an error to wear the mask, and there were no excuses. But he's learned from this episode. Only wear the mask in private. With no selfies. And no white hoods like I might have inherited from my Klu Klux Klan forbears. --------- --------- Lawmaker apologizes for face mask that looks like Confederate flag NBC News Nicole Acevedo Apr 25th 2020 11:09PM A Michigan state senator has apologized for showing up to the state Capitol wearing a face mask that appeared to depict the Confederate flag. "I’m sorry for my choice of pattern on the face mask I wore yesterday on the Senate floor. I did not intend to offend anyone; however, I realize that I did, and for that I am sorry," Republican Senator Dale Zorn tweeted Saturday morning, adding that he doesn't support "the things this pattern represents." WLNS-TV in Lansing, Michigan first reported that Zorn wore a red mask with blue stripes and white stars on the state Senate floor on Friday. He initially told the local news station that the face covering, made by his wife, didn't depict the Confederate flag, and was more similar to the Kentucky or Tennessee flag. “I told my wife it probably will raise some eyebrows, but it was not a Confederate flag,” Zorn said. AdChoices He also said that "even if it was a Confederate flag, you know, we should be talking about teaching our national history in schools, and that’s part of our national history." "It’s something we can’t just throw away because it is part of our history. And if we want to make sure that the atrocities that happened during that time doesn’t happen again, we should be teaching it. Our kids should know what that flag stands for,”Zorn told WLNS-TV on Friday. On Saturday, Zorn deemed his actions "an error in judgment for which there are no excuses." "I will learn from this episode,” he tweeted. | |

Without seeing it I will assume it is the battle flag that is different from the Confederate national flag. The battle flag was at the lead of most Confederate regiments from 1863 through 1865. A state senate is a strange place to display this, but everyone has their own taste or allegiances. Warning Will Robinson | |

How about a mask sporting the flag of the Michigan’s Iron Brigade? Think this Michigan Senator knows of this famous Civil War unit? It spent four yrs tearing the evil heart out of the confederacy. (Sp?) | |
