South Carolina Gov. Haley Calls For Removing Confederate Flag From State Capitol Grounds

South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said Monday it's time to remove the Confederate flag from the Statehouse grounds. Haley called for the flag's removal after the killings last week of nine people at a historic African-American church in Charleston. She said if the state's legislature doesn't vote on taking down the flag this summer she will call them into special session.
