Ladies and Gentlemen: Late Monday evening, the West Point, Virginia City Council urrendered unconditionally. HPA President of Virginia, Fred Taylor, reports that there were about 100 SCV/HPA and others at the meeting. Before the crowd could begin to show their outrage, the city attorney read a statement saying that they were backing off their ban of Confederate flags on the graves of Confederates. Calling from a cell phone in the cemetery, Fred stated that they were putting flags out at this moment. It is a fine moment for the Confederacy! Congratulations Virginia!! Charles Lunsford, President HPA
