The Toilet Brush State

The proposed new design for South Carolina's state flag began circulating online late last month, and the social media reaction lacked any Southern niceties. 

The tentative design included a crescent and palmetto tree, the official state tree, on an indigo background, similar to the current but nonstandardized versions that manufacturers sell. The new version was approved by a committee of historians and politicians, but the tree, in particular, did not appeal to many state residents. It even drew comparisons to the Charlie Brown Christmas tree, hurricane wreckage and a toilet brush, according to local paper The Post & Courier. The outlet did an unofficial Twitter poll and found that only 22% of respondents approved.

  1. Why don't they throw a star into the middle of that crescent moon? Then people would be afraid to criticize the design.

  2. State of Mississippi's confederate flag was tossed, the residents were solicited to submit graphics and then vote on the state committee's choices of several new design possibilities. My submission failed to be offered. A black field emblazoned with a bright yellow bellied c*cksucker.

    1. I would have voted for it. Sign the petition that is circulating.

  3. The toilet brush logo is perfect considering the turds from SC that have been sent to Washington DC. Graham, Gowdy, Sanford, Clyburn, Haley, Hollings to name a few.
