The state flag of SC is this rather Islammy-looking thing:
Have you ever heard of google?Originally Posted by ltnt
The confederate flag has only flown over the SC capitol since 1962, it was originally put up as a protest against the civil rights movement and against desegregation so your usual blubbering about 'race card' is just more crappola.

If you hear the thunder be happy - the lightening missed.
This time.
The discussion over the confederate flag has now moved to Mississippi.
That flag was put in the state flag during Reconstruction.

The tree in the SC flag is a Palmetto tree.
Also, it seems the state flag has accommodated to muslims by including the crescent moon.
Pork is now taken off SC public school menus.

^let me explain the woshing sound you head whilst reading bob's post.
A notable part if south carolinas history is the enthusiasm for white the confederate waving citizens has for lynching black people for doing things that would not get a white person lynched.
hence the reference to the cultural importance south Carolina of a black man hanging from a tree.

Do you actually believe that in 1775 when designing the flag Colonel William Moultrie was concerned about that? You really are as thick as..Originally Posted by Black Heart

Are you not yet fed up with this slavery and racism crap? A worker in Manchester or Liverpool in 1850 had the freedom to slog away 80 hours per week, and lived to the ripe old age of 25. A slave in America at the same time, 35, and God knows how long they made it in the Cannibal infested swamps of Africa. The Confederation had its fair share of free blacks, many of whom were slaveholders themselves. The American dream was shared by them as well, maybe easier to achieve than it is today by so called free people. While your mind is occupied with this ancient shit and you are being played against each other, rich whites and blacks alike are scheming to gradually demote you to the old Manchester standards.

Confederate flag sales are skyrocketing
Get yours yet?
Amazon has taken down Confederate merchandise from its site.
Amazon's sales of Confederate flags have skyrocketed by more than 3,000% in the past 24 hours.
People are snatching up the flags online after several major retailers — including eBay, Wal-Mart, and Sears — pulled them from shelves.
The retailers banned the flags after last week's shooting in Charleston, South Carolina, in which a gunman killed nine people in the historic black Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.
The man arrested in connection to the shootings, 21-year-old Dylann Roof, reportedly harbored racist sentiments and wanted to incite a "race war." He appeared to pose with the Confederate battle flag in several photos that were unearthed after the attack."

Same same
Now that Amazon, ebay etc have banned the sale of the Confederate Flag we suppose all those statues of Confederate soldiers standing in court houses in the South will have to be stripped out too?

I went into a shipyard offices in Pascagoola Mississippi back in 72 on assignment. The place was one huge Butler type building. Across its rear wall was a Confederate flag of Mississippi that had to be 20' x 30'. I was stunned.Originally Posted by Boon Mee
We flew in and out of Mobile Alabama during that time. I was also shocked to find white only bathrooms, drinking fountains and restaurants.
As someone who had never experienced this form of segregation before it came as a shock to me. When I discussed this with family and friends on return to California they to were disbelieving that such things actually existed. I asked my employer about this condition. Their response was, "that's the way it is." The company also sent black employees to their Mississippi site. I asked one of them Irving, what he thought about it. Irving said he grew up in Oklahoma on a share croppers farm. He said he was not going to rock the boat on his income. Further he stated he now owned the farm where his father and family were share croppers.
Irving went on to become a very successful Black business man.
