Klan supporter Richard Barrett says University of Mississippi Chancellor Dan Jones and Football Coach Houston Nutt should be fired. These comments come after Jones asked the Rebel band to stop playing “From Dixie With Love” after some Ole Miss fans continued chanting “the South will rise again” at the end of the medley. Jones said last week he would ask the band to stop playing"From Dixie With Love” if the chant continued during the football game this past Saturday. Jones said he is following through with what he promised. Jones did not specify how long the song will be off limits. Coach Nutt has said publicly he supports Jones’ decision. The band has played the song for about two decades.

I do not agree with Richard Barrett! The south is raising again and NOTHING to do with race or skin color. Look at Nissian in MS and Tn, Honda in AL. Big biz is moving south. Raising again has NOTHING to do with black or white. Just a person and TV station trying to make everything racist.
Richard Barrett should go back to New York. He’s not from here and we don’t want what he is selling.
Those African American football players should boycott the games.
