And you wonder who the Confederacy appeals to.
Marshall W Leonard allegedly warned a Wal-Mart employee to run before lighting the explosive, which was wrapped in newspaper, and throwing it at the store in Tupelo in the early hours of Sunday.
The unemployed 61-year-old was apparently enraged the chain had stopped selling the Mississippi state flag, which includes the Confederate battle flag in its upper left section…
‘He told the employee to run — that he was going to blow the place up. He throws this package into the front entrance of Wal-Mart. He flees and the employee flees.’

The bomb didn’t go off with enough force to do any real damage to the store, and no one was hurt. However, experts say the package held enough explosive to damage the store if it had been assembled differently.
