Thread: The Confederate Flag

How 'bout this Bull Shit:

"Not only should the Confederate flag come down, but I believe it’s also time for Southern states to change place names in honor of traitors such as Jefferson Davis.

I know, I know: it’s a slippery slope that could eventually result in taking slaveholders such as George Washington off our currency or even renaming our national capital."

Slippery slope indeed...

You don't get it eh? PC people believe that PC stands for truth and facts, when it actually stands for the exact opposite of truth and fact. Progressives will continue to push non-issues till they become issues.

If one were to look at the origin of the Confederate flag design they would need look no further than the Union Jack. This image was the one carried across the worlds oceans engaging in slavery, transport and brutality. Perhaps our UK cousins would like to abolish the Union Jack as a sign of racism? Lets start at its place of origin.

Diverting the issues away from the actual incident is a sure sign that PC revisionist agendas spring up whenever and wherever they find an opportunity to undermine ordinary citizens rights for the rights of the few.

By all means eliminate the Confederate flag folks...it won't cause a mass movement toward the elimination of racism. You need a "mind eraser." No doubt the Fed's are working on that one.

Itnt thinks he's on to something because the Union Jack and Confederate flags both have a diagonal cross. Lot's of flags have a diagonal cross. Course, he has an IQ of 165 so he must be right.

Like-minded people such as yourself should do exactly that. Love it or leave it and all that.

Was a Davis a traitor? I don't think so. Not at all.

I took my US American history classes in high school and a class at Uni many moons ago. I've read a couple books on the topic around 20+ years ago.

The North and South back then were basically two different countries. There were enormous differences during the Article of Confederation, which was before the US Constitution.

I recall that General Robert E. Lee did not want to be in the Confederate Army, but since he was from Virginia, and VA seceded he followed suit.

One issue that should still be thought of, is state-control and the hypothetical (it is hypothetical) notion that a state or group of state can or could secede.

Why not - India renamed many cities as well. Makes sense

Yes, the law stops this flag flying in Germany. Try to inform yourself before spouting unsubstantiated rubbish

Why do you hate America? Why did you kill people for America and then hate it? Why do you make fun of Vietnamese killed by or still suffering from agent orange - which you call a 'disease'?

Racist bigots having a circle jerk defending the confederacy. It's hard to make yourselves appear even more stupid than everyone already knows you are but you are doing a good job of it.

What will make these people happy? Blow up all the symbols of the Confederacy like the Taliban blew up the Buddhas of Bamiyan?

Another thing I just remembered (and checked on google) is that Lincoln was not on the ballot in 10 Southern states.

Many historian say the South seceded was likely before the dispute over the expansion of slave states vs. free states.

That said, yes, slavery was one of the main issue(s) leading to the secession of the states and the attack on Fr. Sumter.

Don't take it out of context Bert. The Brits should own up to their participation in not only the creation of the Confederate flag, but the initial importation of slaves into the Americas.

Please note intellectual one that I used the noun "Americas, not singular America."

As the English provided slaves to almost all of South America, Central America, the Caribbean as well North America. This small fact seems to be ignored by the ubber class that now dominates the liberal pov's as voiced and read across the news reads and bloggers posts these days. Obviously this part of "the History lesson," will be deleted to all future viewers, general populations and students by those who are actively re-writing history in the progressive agenda.

Bert's o a roll I see...abundantly a re-constructionist of historical data...two strikes now Bert.

Declaring the all as racist is opinion only.

Check this out - even Texas is getting into the act.

Wrong again. Many public meetings and protests this flag is in obvious full view and use...get a grip pisshat...stick to the subject for a change.

As for Che...wrong again... murderer and fanatic killed in Bolivia. Lots of views of his death online if you care to visit?

So what, everyone who took US history classes knows that England was the South's best customer. Slavery kept the price of cotton artifically low. It has nothing to do with this thread though.

In English please.

How about England Pisshat...one of the royals seems to think being a Nazi is O.K..Not against the law there either...loads of Nazi skin heads. The English are first in line for hate.
