All this Confederate flag controversy is so stupid. It takes you this long to suddenly be offended?Okay then.
"Southern pride flag that's image has been skewed for some decades because liberal media likes to perpetuate the notion of racism."
Amazing ain't it? A flag that pretty much means, "murder everyone who isn't one of us by performing every horrid thing man can think of (like daisy-chaining explosives to people's necks together and blowing off their heads)." vs "Southern pride flag that's image has been skewed for some decades because liberal media likes to perpetuate the notion of racism."Humanity, oh how impressive you are.

It only now has been boiling over because of current events combined with the fact that it isn't 1863 anymore.

Kids flew the stars and bars on their pickup trucks going to school senior year. Maybe in Comradefornia it's an issue, but y'all can just keep your whole being offended at everything shtick to y'allselves.

You know slavery and systematic oppression of blacks aren't even mentioned in the constitution of the Confederate States.

If you think the Dixie flag is too evil, you should write off American flags too, because trust me, that flag represents some pretty FUCKED UP shit to Native Americans. But I guess it's okay to salute that flag because at least it won.

The new Constitution has put at rest forever all the agitating questions relating to our peculiar institutions—African slavery as it exists among us—the proper status of the negro in our form of civilization. This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution. Jefferson, in his forecast, had anticipated this, as the "rock upon which the old Union would split." He was right. What was conjecture with him, is now a realized fact. But whether he fully comprehended the great truth upon which that rock stood and stands, may be doubted. The prevailing ideas entertained by him and most of the leading statesmen at the time of the formation of the old Constitution were, that the enslavement of the African was in violation of the laws of nature; that it was wrong in principle, socially, morally and politically. It was an evil they knew not well how to deal with; but the general opinion of the men of that day was, that, somehow or other, in the order of Providence, the institution would be evanescent and pass away... Those ideas, however, were fundamentally wrong. They rested upon the assumption of the equality of races. This was an error. It was a sandy foundation, and the idea of a Government built upon it—when the "storm came and the wind blew, it fell."Our new Government is founded upon exactly the opposite ideas; its foundations are laid, its cornerstone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery, subordination to the superior race, is his natural and normal condition.- Vice President of the Confederacy

They go on about "knowing history", but the irony is that those who say that don't even understand the "history" they are trying to defend.The south can have plenty more to be proud about than a stupid flag.
