Apparently the guy holding the flag was trying to hit the lawyer with the flag pole, but in the photo it looks like he's trying to spear him. It also appears that there's a man holding the lawyer in place for the man holding the flag to attack him, but he actually helped pick up the attorney after he was knocked down. Things aren't always what they seem. It turned out the that man with the flag was a teenager who had serious mental problems and allegedly killed his brother's girlfriend.
Thanks for the correction.I saw a clip years ago that confirmed that it was NOT a staged photo,so I believed what my eyes saw. F the loser holding the flag pole as a weapon though. Guy in the Charleston killing will probably claim serious mental issues too.
