JOE

...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

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.....
