She Offended Her Neighbors When She First Moved In But Then She Had A Change Of Heart
Annie Caddell moved into a new neighborhood in South Carolina. The entire neighborhood was so welcoming of Annie, until she began to put up Confederate flags. She was not aware of the fact that her Confederate flag was offensive to her new neighbors. And when they tried to bring it to her attention, she reacted in a stubborn way. It created a battle between her and her neighborhood. godupdates neighbor with confederate flags Credit: Youtube/CBS Sunday Morning It led to many protests against her and Annie actually invited counter-protestors to protest against theirs. It was so much chaos. The neighbors even built up walls around Annie’s house so that they do not have to see her confederate paraphernalia. But that did not stop Annie.
