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. |

Make a list of your accused racists and see if you can find the pattern Bet your list matches pretty closely with your *enemys* list.

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. It was the battle flag and perfectly appropriate for a war memorial. If the institutions of the old south are your beef, it should be the political flag that was banned. If the racists Harry is worried about co opt the American flag next, should we ban that one too? The retailers are getting a lot of free publicity for it. I could care less about that flag and I'm surprised it took this long for it to be an issue. The Washington Redskins have survived their "controversy" so far but they may be next. |

You will see it if you get over in "souf'ese". I have a friend who is rehabilitating an inlaw's house on Wheeler Road and I inspected the electric for him a few years ago. There are plenty of gangsters down there. I will agree, perhaps this is not supposed to be on a state flag like Mississippi but it is the choice of the people in that state, not activists on MSNBC. War memorials are a different issue but the country is full of them. How are you on the ones that glorify the subjugation of the indians? There was nothing honorable or worth honoring in the slaughter of the Indians or in the south's secession or in the south's decision to go to way to preserve slavery. |
