Looks like even Wallmart will stop selling that confederate flag.
The largest flag distributor in Canada is doing the same.
BTW, you can tell who the racists are by whether they come to the
"defense" of flying the confederate flag or lamenting that it is
heading
to the museum, one state at a time, in the south.
It is just an issue of blaming symbols on insanity and crime. When
people object to the "pants hanging off your ass" look (which is
simply a symbol that the wearer has been to prison and not afraid to
go back) you folks on the left defend it. How about the million
"hoodie" march?
Let's hear it for drug gangs!
We don't see much "pants hanging off your ass" looks here in Calvert
County, or, when I go to downtown DC or Annapolis. Must be in your old
neighborhood here, I suppose.
The confederate flag is indeed a symbol when it flies on or over a
public space...it is a symbol of white power, racism, slavery, and
traitors.
It was never the flag of the confederacy. Many think it is so I guess
that reason enough to take it down.
