Is there a sense that the lawmakers are now listening to the calls to remove the flag and that that will happen any time soon . Well we do understand they plan to introduce legislation as they get back together here within the next few minutes in order to call this issue of removing the flag as part of this sessions agenda. Now, they have to add some specific amendments to the current agenda in order to do that. Were understanding that the most likely scenario to play out is that they will vote on adding that legislation. That is likely to pass. Still takes twothirds majority though, to add that to this years session. And then they would likely later set up a time to come back this summer in the days

They say they dont believe the authorities anymore. And what you really get a sense of is that there is a breakdown of communication between authorities and between the residents of this neighborhood. There are many different types of people.
