Reporter tonight a powerful first from the sitting governor of South Carolina. Its time to move the flag from the Capitol Grounds.

For those who want to show respect for the flag on your private property, no one will stand in your way. But the state house is different. And the events of this past week call upon us to look at it in a different way. Reporter here she is at one of the events, seen praying with the family of the dead killed in what police say was a racially motivated attack. At this historic black church.

But this time, the opponents point to 21yearold dylann roof accused in the church murders, seen holding a Confederate Flag in a manifesto online. In their Christian Faith so many families of the victims are forgiving them. But the family of ethel lance told me, not them all. I know forgiveness is a process and i know with gods help, i will get there. But im not there yet. I ask for time. Reporter no matter how much South Carolinas governor would like this flag to go, a super majority of lawmakers would need to approve. And the families here know that wont come easy. David .
