Indiana Law - Update on Flag issues again at Muncie campground

Updating yesterday's entry, today the Muncie Star-Press reports "Canan does about-face on American flag ban." Some quotes:

MUNCIE - Admitting he made a mistake, Mayor Dan Canan on Tuesday rescinded a ban on flying American and MIA/POW flags at Prairie Creek Reservoir campsites. * * *

The complete ban, an advised defense of a lawsuit filed by the Indiana Civil Liberties Union over the original ban of Confederate flags and sports banners, set off a storm of criticism and controversy as well as a media frenzy with Fox News, CNN and other networks running national stories about it.
