And the Bill of Rights is even older...no wonder you hold it in such disregard!

First they came for the Confederate Flag....


You think it's going to stop there, they are already going after Jefferson, and ultimately they will go after Washington, and suggest that we get a new flag to better represent our "diversity".

Suppressed -  why do you levy this charge?   What part of the Bill of Rights do you say I "hold in disregard"?   

I'm not suggesting that the law prohibit these yokels from flying the Confederate flag.  Of course they have the right.   I'm just suggesting the war's been over for 150 years now, and it's time to give it up.   The South has much to be proud of  - folks from my part of the country are flocking there - but insisting on poking one's metaphorical finger in the eyes of those who continue to suffer the effects of racial prejudice is just, well, assholery.

It's hardly ignorant to state that the war's been over for 150 years, sir.  Ignorance is continuing to insist on the righteousness of a cause grounded in the defense of slavery.    Let it go - so the rest of us can let it go,  and continue to heal.

Bullshit.

Having someone ELSE define what YOUR flag means is assholery.
Just what would you do if someone decided your precious rainbow flag was all about tobacco?

If you don't like it, don't look at it. People have the right to choose to fly a flag if they so desire.
So let it go.

Are you so obtuse that you think WBTS heritage is limited to the slavery issue?  I guess the concepts of honor, valor, homeland defense, and pride in ancestry are concepts beyond your comprehension.  Where's the damn ignore button, ......  you are worthy.

Have you tried explaining that to the yankees? Of course you haven't.

Are you one of the ignorant shitheads that thinks it had anything to do with slavery?

It had EVERYTHING to do with slavery.   But never mind - you have the right to fly that flag, so go ahead and do it.   As for me, I have the right to wipe my ass with it.

Thank you for self-identifying as an ignorant fool. Even Abraham Lincoln said it had nothing to do with slavery,but WTF did HE know about it,right?
