Three weeks after Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley ordered the Confederate flag removed from the grounds of the state Capitol, a probate judge is asking the governor to go a step further.
Montgomery County Probate Judge Steven Reed sent a letter to the governor on Tuesday asking him to issue a proclamation ordering the Sons of Confederate Veterans to redesign its license plate, which features the battle flag.
When asked about Confederate car tags today, the governor, through a representative, said he won't take any action on tags or anything else related to the Confederacy.

Good for him. All this political posturing over a flag serves no good purpose. Slavery has existed in one form or another since the dawn of man. If we were condemn the entire accomplishments of every civilization where it existed there would be no civilization or culture left anywhere. This would include both the black tribal cultures who sold their brethren to the Muslim slave traffickers who then sold them to the French, English and Spaniards who shipped them to the new world. The world would be better served if these energies were expended against those nations and cultures where slavery is still practiced today. This of course would include those very same black and Islamic nations and cultures that fostered the trade in the 15th and 16th centuries and still do today.
