Irony in Florida

Over at Civil War Memory, Kevin made mention of the fact that Florida’s Confederate license tag is dead in the water.  I also notice this story that may have a connection.

Since Florida just issued an apology for slavery, I wonder if they just felt that following that up with a Confederate Heritage Plate would have been just poor taste.

"Do not, I pray, admit those who have slaughtered half a million of our countrymen, until their clothes are dried and until they are re-clad. I do not wish to it side by side with men whose garments smell of the blood of my kindred." Thaddeus Stevens in Congress, 1866
The Storm Cometh-we hope the infatuated rebels like the appearance of the northern horizon. The storm of patriotism may shortly become the hurricane of vengeance, and they have only themselves to thank... Those who sow the wind must reap the whirlwind. Milwaukee Sentinel Editorial Saturday, April 20, 1861
