Re: Interim Haywood County "Display Policy"
Dear Mr. Killian:
This is a follow up to our letter of 19 November where we critiqued the County's interim "Display Policy" and your proposed "Display Policy," as unconstitutional.
Without waiving or altering anything in our critique letter, this is to inform you, the County Commissioner's and Haywood County Employees that the North Carolina Sons of Confederate Veterans and the Western North Carolina Flaggers intend to respect and conform our conduct to the current interim "Display Policy" by displaying only "official government flags" as defined by NC General Statute 144-7(c)(4); being "The flag of any state or territory of the United States," ie. the flag of the State of Mississippi. An image of the Mississippi State flag is attached.
Out of respect to your proposed policy, we will not display more than 2 flags at the monument, and we will pick them up at the end of the business day. It is our request that flags placed on Friday afternoon or Saturday be allowed to remain undisturbed throughout the weekend.
Please instruct the County Maintainance staff that the display of the Mississippi State flag comports in every way with the interim "Display Policy" adopted by the Haywood County Board of Commissioners on August 20, 2012 and therefore should not be removed or molested in any way.
I am also authorized to say that the SCV and WNC Flaggers consider premature removal of these flags from County Monuments by private persons or state actors to constitute theft and monument desecration.
Please feel free to call if we need to discuss.
