Looks like I touched a nerve or two, or three.
Yeeeeeeeee-HAW!
Yeah. If a bunch of inbred, gap-toothed, third grade educated, welfare trailer park redneck hicks want to advertise their ignorance to the world, that's their right.
Confederate flag will fly along I-95 - Richmond Times-Dispatch: City Of RichmondA Confederate heritage group confirmed Tuesday that it plans to fly a 10-by-15-foot Confederate flag along Interstate 95 just south of Richmond.
The flag will fly on a 50-foot pole, and will be visible from the northbound lane, said Susan Hathaway, founder of Virginia Flaggers, the group behind the flag. Its tentatively scheduled to go up Sept. 28.
Basically, the flag is being erected as a memor ial to the memory and the honor of the Confederate soldiers who sacrificed, bled and died to defend Virginia from invasion, she said.
The states chapter of the NAACP is vocally opposing the move.
Of course they do.
But... so what?
Do they expect someone, like the state, to stop them?
Having the right to free speech means that, sometimes, people are going to say things you don't like. Put your big girl panties on and get over it.
Ad homs - final refuge of those with nothing worthwhile to say.Yeah. If a bunch of inbred, gap-toothed, third grade educated, welfare trailer park redneck hicks want to advertise their ignorance the working commuters, that's their right.
The Confederate flag represents a State that wanted to maintain slavery, there are things that could be said but no one is smart enough to say them resorting to ignorant childish rants instead.
Why don't you tell the flag wavers to get over it like you do the blacks with slavery?

Are you an idiot? Are you one of the idiots who thinks the Civil War was fought over slavery?
Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world.
It must be a wonderful talent to be able to "know" what flying the confederate flag means to those with whom you have never met, don't know at all, and will never know.
You see they are celebrating the bravery of soldiers who fought and died for the tenth amendment. You, in your infinite wisdom, have decided that they are truly flying it for completely different reasons.
To me that flag represents state's rights and those that fought, on both sides, not the issue of slavery. I wonder why your omniscience missed my view. Maybe you really don't know what you believe you know?

yet, the same applies to you as well. You have a first amendment right, and are free to use that in a manner that is rationally offensive to others. You have const right to be a boor. I and others do as well. It's a price we pay for liberty. Some of us attempt civility and manners, and a precious few succeed.

I lived in the Deep South. Even married into a family with some old Klan ties. I know all about Confederates. Don't fool yourself into believing I'm stupid enough to think Confederates as a general rule don't rant about negroes on a regular basis.
Too many of them made the mistake of espousing their racist bullshit around me. I can repeat their racist jokes for hours, if you like. I know exactly what they are about.
Up there on the Alabama/Georgia state line, at the first rest area inside the Alabama state line, there' a rock that says "We Dare Defend Our Rights". I always picture George Wallace on the courthouse steps when I read that.
It's Virginia....too stupid to fly the REAL Virginia Confederate flag.
The point, exactly.Uh, this thread isn't about the Civil War...it is about a groups LEGAL RIGHT to fly a flag.
Anyone have a LEGAL objection to flying any flag of any size on private property?
If not, the NAACP can blow it out their ass.

When I told my future ex-wife we were moving from Mississippi to Virginia, she began crying and called all her family to tell them I was taking her to "Yankee territory".
Not the brightest candle in the box. I had to inform her where the capital of the Confederacy was from 1861 to 1865.
