Default Political Correctness as absurd as it can get !!!!

Short version. Bolton High School is where my kids graduated. The history is that a large amount of money was given to fund a college that later turned into a county high school. They still use the money to fund projects for the school. The person who left it was a slave trader and was killed in a duel in 1869. A mural was painted recently that used for his image the likeness on his gravestone. He is not dressed in a Confederate uniform. The mural had no Confederate flags, just a Tennessee state flag. Someone complained that it "looked too Confederate" and the state flag was "like the Confederate flag". The mural was painted over. Posted below are stories about this. Nowhere is there any mention of the money being tainted...UNBELIEVABLE !!!
