Protest over removal of Confederate flags in Missouri
Groups gathered at the governor's mansion to protest the removal of Confederate flags from state historic sites the Confederate Memorial Historic Site near Higginsville and Fort Davidson near Pilot Knob. The decision followed Dick Gephardt's call against flying the flag and was ordered by Steve Mahfood with Gov. Bob Holden's support. Protesters criticized both leaders while Anita Russell praised the governor for the move.
