You are RIGHT. Fantastic advice. I should be more active in civic affairs at all levels. I was unaware that students in the Tallapoosa County public schools could not wear images of the US or Alabama flag. My kids attend Auburn schools, and I don't give a whole lot of thought to how my Tallapoosa county tax dollars are spent, as I can't legally vote there. Since the property tax rape of 2006, I just write the check, and make sure to buy EVERYTHING I may need for my season in a jurisdiction where I can express my preference in the voting booth. In that same jurisdiction, I have served on the CofC board, United Way Board and Officer, Boys and Girls Club board, Homeowners Association Officer, attended numerous School Board, Planning Commission and Economic Development Council meetings, spoken at a number of City Council meetings, in both my town, and the adjacent town, and, recently led a small delegation of local merchants to meet with our State Senator for help in closing the sales tax loophole on internet and catalog sales, not to limit competition, but to capture much need local tax revenue lost to the net. I will investigate the local school district dress code rules regarding the flag, and if I feel the issue needs my attention, the issue will get my attention.
