Investigators say a passerby alerted a local pastor when he saw the police car parked next to the flag. The pastor then told Roswell Police Chief Rusty Grant during a community meeting.
“I was shocked at her obliviousness regarding the confederate flag.”
Grant then ordered an investigation and as a result of it, Sgt. Silvia Cotriss was fired.
In the investigation, he found Cotriss told investigators that, “she didn’t see anything wrong with it” and “was unaware the flag had been adopted by neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups.”
Investigators say the flag is visible using Google Earth, which Elliot confirmed.
“I appreciate the chief maintaining a high level of professional and ethical standards in the police force, and whatever decision he makes, I support because I know he is trying to do the right thing,” Jenkins said.
When the chief comes after pastor Jenkins for saying “hurtful” things about non-Christians, it will be interesting to see how supportive his is about the abrogation of the 1st amendment. Tyrants have always fought to limit speech or to change history in order to gain greater power.
The Left and Black Lives Matter are anxious to erase the history of the United States and symbols like the confederate flag from society today. They even demand that statues of heroes from former generations be eliminated from the public square. The next step will be a demand that genealogical records of ancestors be burned because they were Southerners.
Unfortunately, these book burners and history haters do not even know their history. Virtually all of these liberal bigots are unaware that the Democrat party was the party of slavery, of the Ku Klux Klan, and of the despicable treatment of slaves set free by the Civil War. If they don’t know these simple truths, how can they judge what should and should not be erased from our history?
But they “feel” bad, they are offended by symbols they know nothing about, and someone MUST pay a price. In this case, it is the hapless Sgt. Silvia Cotriss. And the pastor Lee Jenkins? I am sure that he feels great having ruined this woman’s life over a piece of cloth fluttering in her yard. I would not look for compassion or mercy from such a mean-spirited, judgemental man, and I would say that as a pastor he has not learned much from the Holy Bible.

The “Confederate” battle flag ceased to exist in 1865 when the South surrendered and it was adopted as an U.S. battle flag and regularly flown over southern military bases and ships.
Reinstate the police officer. If the flag doesn’t stop affecting her job then who should care?
