Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney has called for an immediate removal of the confederate flag at the South Carolina Capitol in the wake of the church massacre.
"Take down the #ConfederateFlag at the SC Capitol. To many, it is a symbol of racial hatred. Remove it now to honor #Charleston victims," Romney tweeted at 8:09AM this morning. Romney's tweet has garnered 7,384 rewteets and 6,427 Favorites.

Heaven weeps again today, this time for God's children killed in His Charleston house of prayer. Mitt Romney (@MittRomney) June 18, 2015
Last year, a black man flying a confederate flag was arrested for living in a national forest, proving multiple politically correct stereotypes about the flag and its' history incorrect.
Romney's tweet was re-tweeted by Mia Farrow, the left-wing actress whi also echoed sentiments to 'take down that flag' and ban 'assault weapons.' (Perhaps Romney has finally found his niche, and a constituency that will vote for him next time?)
