Montgomery County Commissioners are speaking out against a Confederate Flag flying at a fire station. The flag has been flying at the Uwharrie Volunteer Fire Department for years. But getting it removed isn't so simple. Taxpayer-dollars fund the operation and the fire trucks... but the building is privately-owned. So the controversial flag is allowed to fly there.
