Governor Set To Remove Confederate Flag

[RonPaul4Prez2012]

But why? unless somehow you believe it is the African American equivalent of the Confederation flag which I don't think it is. How about everyone just fly their own damn flag and quit complaining.

I guess you dont get the sarcasm.

I say we fly this flag over the SC capitol.

who's with me?????

With this.

Just the way the founding fathers envisioned it when they set up our "inclusive" democracy.

 

[Zippyjuan]

How about one of these? Freedom of expression and all that.

Ofc not, I didn't think you were serious about proposing SC fly that flag in their state house. But I just thought you believe that it was somehow the African American equivalent of the confederate flag and that was you used it to write your sarcastic post.

Now Walmart is caving.

We never want to offend anyone with the products that we offer. We have taken steps to remove all items promoting the confederate flag from our assortment — whether in our stores or on our web site,” said Walmart spokesman Brian Nick. “We have a process in place to help lead us to the right decisions when it comes to the merchandise we sell. Still, at times, items make their way into our assortment improperly — this is one of those instances.

Id like to see this in the bible belt

Gotta have this one.

After all, a Socialist paradise is what James Madison had in mind when he created the framework for the US Constitution.

My concern is that it basically is trying to sweep the history of the civil war under the rug. Yes, slavery was horrible, yes many people who love the confederate flag may very well be racists, but there were also atrocities committed against the confederates during the war as well like being allowed to starve and freeze to death while captured in union POW camps. Not all of those soldiers were slave owners...many of them were teenagers not even old enough to enlist. One of my own distant relatives fought on the side of the union and used to raid the camps of his own townspeople and rob and murder them. There are a lot of stories that will just no longer matter because only one side of the story will matter and once again, history will get re-written.

It's been going on for years. Many cases documented right here on RPF. Now it will just ramp up until all vestiges of secession are washed away by the tide of ignorance and social brainwashing.

Yeah, I heard that sad news on another thread. I used to own the toy. Never once in my mind did I connect that flag with racism. Just heroes fighting corruption.

It's not going to happen. That flag is not a symbol of hate or slavery, to the people who adhere to it - it's a symbol of giving the middle finger to meddling northerners.

Pffft...half of New York and New Jersey now live in the Carolinas.

You're no more "southern" than bagels and lox nowadays.

<<<hauls ass

Can't have that flag showing in public now....

The first thing you notice is that the flag on the roof is absent. But fear not Dukes faithful. Auto World has not committed such an egregious act; they merely covered it under an orange decal. The General sure looks weird in the box though. It almost looks bald

.

Another picture of the "bald" General still in the box.

And you wash that down with strong coffee, the kind without funny names.....

When you’ve lost Walmart, you have truly lost the ‘Lost Cause.’ The nation’s largest retailer says it will remove all Confederate battle flag merchandise from its stores and website.

From CNN:

“We never want to offend anyone with the products that we offer. We have taken steps to remove all items promoting the Confederate flag from our assortment — whether in our stores or on our web site,” said Walmart spokesman Brian Nick. “We have a process in place to help lead us to the right decisions when it comes to the merchandise we sell. Still, at times, items make their way into our assortment improperly — this is one of those instances.”
