And it is a special day!!!!!!









<I>>Virginia State Flag Day

April 30, 2022

161st Year Anniversary





Whereas, on July 5th, 1776, Virginia officially adopted it's Great Seal – and the motto -

"Sic Semper Tyrannis" by Constitutional Convention. The original design was the work of a committee composed of George Mason, George Wythe, Richard Henry Lee and Robert Carter Nicholas; and





Whereas, April 30th, 1861, the Virginia Convention passed ordinance No. 33 -- An ORDINANCE to establish a Flag for this Commonwealth:

Be it ordained by the convention of the commonwealth of Virginia, that the flag of this commonwealth shall hereafter be made of bunting, which shall be a deep blue field with a circle of white in the centre, upon which shall be painted or embroidered, to show on both sides alike, the coat of arms of the state, as described by the convention of seventeen hundred and seventy-six, for one side of the seal of state, to wit: "Virtus, the genius of the commonwealth, dressed like an Amazon, resting on a spear with one hand, and holding a sword in other, and treading on tyranny, represented by a man prostrate, a crown fallen from his head, a broken chain in his left hand and a scourge in his right. In the exergon the word Virginia over the head of Virtus, and underneath the words "Sic Semper Tyrannis." This flag shall be known and respected as the flag of Virginia; and



Whereas,

The motto "Sic Semper Tyrannis" means "Thus Always to Tyrants." This quote is attributed to Brutus during the assassination of Julius Ceasar in Rome; and



Whereas,

Cassye Bonner Gravely penned the state flag salute that was officially adopted on March 15th, 1954 which reads:

 "I salute the flag of Virginia, with reverence and patriotic devotion to the "Mother of States and Statesmen" which it represents - the "Old Dominion," where liberty and independence were born"; and



Whereas, April 30th, 2011 marks the sesquicentennial of the adoption of the Virginia State Flag - and every April 30th is to be officially recognized as "Virginia State Flag Day"<e></e></I>

This thread obviously doesn't mean much to me. I'm not white with ancestors who fought in the American civil war. However, erasing history does bother me. It should bother everybody.

Some of my ancestors joined the Saratoga Campaign around 1777 and escorted supply chains to upstate New York.



Some of them arrived in 1647 to Massachusetts.



Some of them raped and pillaged throughout England, Ireland, and Scotland as well as modern day France, Denmark, Germany, and Spain.



But I don't give a fuck...



We're meant to be related to Isaac Newton... and some third in line English princess who got her marching orders and had to flee...



I don't care.



If I buried my dick in you and a kid popped out, it would just be another genealogy hassle.
Blahhhhhh...

Pulling down those monuments and not teaching local history in the South is what Josef Stalin would do.

They need to live a while under Stalinism. I suggest one way tickets to Pyongyang.

Why would one of the worst mass murderers of the twentieth century have a statue in an American city?
