Father In Confederate Flag Photo Responds

Casey Kelley (RE: Parting Shot/Tuesday ): “Okay I am the father in this picture and that is my three year old. First off never assume that I teach my son hate. If you look at other picture I’m rooting for it to come down. But that is my family past. Not one I’m proud of. But that aside it helped shape this country into a good one. That flag is not the reason hatred and racism is soaring through the roof. It is the people in this nation plan and simple. But every steep we can take to help it get better I’m down. I don’t want me or my kids to fly that flag which we will and automatically be thought of as racist because that is far from true. So whoever is arguing over a matter that does not pertain to this situation I would appreciate it if you deleted the comment.”
