Title: The Confederate Flag
Post by: JOE on January 30, 2019, 11:00:06 PM
...personally I don't find it offensive



I don't know what the fuss is about it



I put the bars and stars on par with the colonial flags of New France



(//%3C/s%3E%3CURL%20url=%22http://cdigs.uwindsor.ca/neighborhood-history/files/original/26/579/royal_flag_of_france_by_llwynogfox-d31vj2o.png%22%3E%3CLINK_TEXT%20text=%22http://cdigs.uwindsor.ca/neighborhood-h%20...%2031vj2o.png%22%3Ehttp://cdigs.uwindsor.ca/neighborhood-history/files/original/26/579/royal_flag_of_france_by_llwynogfox-d31vj2o.png%3C/LINK_TEXT%3E%3C/URL%3E%3Ce%3E)



Relics of history which belong in a museum.



Heck even the province of Quebec is allowed to fly a watered down version of them.



The fleur de lis is their version of the stars and bars



I don't really care if they fly the damn thing



You could place me at a rally in a sea of them & it wouldn't bother me at all.



About the only tome i'd consider Banning its presence is if it were used at rallies to incite violence



Other than that its ok



But apparently it really bothers a lot if people.



So they had to ban it



Oh well

And it wouldn't bother me at all to place you in the middle of an actual sea.



Maybe you could build yourself a raft or your own little island out of your hair.

It bugs the fuck out of me the way the flag has been treated this past few years. That flag stood for opposing big government, that was taxing the hell out of the South, and trying to force the South back into the Union. Yes, it was the War of Northern Aggression, not the Civil War. That war was not fought over slavery either, but THEY teach it in schools that way, because they dont want the youngin's to know the truth, or ever repeat such said war. THEY want to hold their power, and by banning the flag, THEY think it will simply go away. WRONG! So of course the youngins dont have a clue about its true intent, and more so focus on slavery and that is what it stands for. I WISH schools would teach the truth.



I'll admit, some groups use it as a tool of hate, and I agree that is wrong. The Sons of Confederate Veterans agree as well. That flag was not to incite hate. The majority of us that fly that flag, do not have hate in our hearts.



This is the best website I know of, that tells the TRUTH about what really went down. And is told by a black man.....

Having lived in the sphere of the Beltway for over three decades, I have traveled frequently to Virginia and West Virginia. History fascinates me so I have enjoyed learning about American History. As soon as my eyes caught a glimpse of a confederate flag, I knew I was entering the realm where battles were fought, won, lost--where history was made. The very idea would make my heart beat faster.



There are pockets in these regions where you could say time has stood still. History portrays the good and the bad in us but we cannot deny the events that happened. They happened. Hiding the confederate flag does not hide the events that happened. I am not for hiding or removing reminders of the tumultuous history that shaped our country today. It is important for the future generations to know that part of our history. By removing these icons or statues, we are denying the future generations the full knowledge that we have come a long way. We are keeping them in the dark as though robbing them of the knowledge. Will they be better for it?

The actual stat for illiteracy is 75%...If you're illiterate, you are going to earn much more than minimum wage, mostly.

Quote from: "Odinson"Did the slaves actually quit working for the masters after slavery was abolished?



I dont think they just left the plantation and went running into the woods yelling "Meessa free!"





I bet most of them kept living like they always have... Still working for the same massa..


The way I understand it, the "freed" slaves that went North, were met with more hostility than they did in the South. So they either kept going towards Canada, or went back down South, realizing they were treated better down South. A lot of Southern slaves were actually treated fairly well.

Goes to show, we were'nt about to bend over and be "forced" back into the corruptness. We made a stand against the aggressors. The South will rise again!

I agree. Some slaves were treated by their white slave owners as part of the family and they had no contempt for one another. It was a way of life for the owners to have help and for the help to receive income. They did not know any other skill at the time. It is the same with our relationship with our helpers too in the Philippines. Our nanny, cook, housekeeper, laundry woman become part of the family that some of them actually stay with the family for a lifetime. We did not keep them shackled to a post in our house. They were free to find other opportunities but this is what they chose to do.
