It's not my stupid flag. I know this is going to cause you a great deal of confusion here since, well, it just will, but I'm not defending the mindset behind the flag. Shocker, you don't get my actual point here, so just to be clear, it is not, and never has been my flag.


I'm really really taken back by your suggestion I should "GET OUT!" That's some really tough talk. I'm sure your keyboard is really flexing as you type in all caps. Gosh, what should I do here? Never mind. I'm not going anywhere. Too much stupidity on this planet to eradicate.


As far as moving corpses is concerned, again, completely expected you to miss the point, and low and behold, you did. Again, nothing shocking. My point was a simple one, and most people would grasp it without difficulty. The flag is a flag. Nothing more. It's a piece of cloth. What it represents in this instance is the Confederacy. It is displayed over a MONUMENT DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF THE VETERANS WHO SERVED AND/OR DIED IN THE CIVIL WAR (/macho keyboard operation). Take down the flag, and the monument still exists. So, what have you accomplished exactly? Absolutely nothing, but hey, you go right ahead and continue your little tantrum over a piece of cloth. That's the big issue to you. Some people can't think beyond the singular issue, which in this case is a piece of cloth. It's okay.


If you were sincerely trying to erase the horrors of slavery, removing a flag ain't gonna cut it, but hey, there's bipartisan support for it so it must be a good thing, right?


The Civil War was fought over far more than slavery. Those of us who were educated in the south are well aware that slavery was but one issue in a list of issues that ultimately brought about the Civil War. Apparently, whatever government indoctrination center that taught you only focused on one particular subject.


"Do the south just not teach these things in their schools?"


Evidently, whatever the region you got your education from, they failed to teach things like English.


Interestingly enough, you completely avoided my point that slavery existed in the north. In fact, it was an active form of commerce in all of the original colonies, and didn't actually end until DURING the Civil War in states like New Jersey. I guess they failed to mention that when they were spoon feeding you the politically correct version of history, huh? No worries.
