If the Confederate flag is a Democrat thing...

[paulitician]

It was at one point. But now it's a Republican thing. Most who support it now, are white Republicans.

probably because it represents states rights to them...

I can see that. But the South represented a whole lotta evil. They enjoyed beating, raping, and killing African American slaves. The South did not represent Freedom & Liberty.

So you are saying there were no slaves in northern states?

The North freed the slaves. They didn't cling to a racist flag that only represented hate & bigotry. They moved on. They evolved.

That would be a yes.

true...The South is a complicated animal.....even though the Southern states converted from Democrat to Republican during the sixties some still hold onto many old southern attitudes and customs...but the demographics are also changing....

The change from Democratic to Republican was to hold on to old, southern, attitudes.

Name some racist Democrats who switched to Republicans.

Slavery existed in the north after it was abolished in the south.

The Emancipation Proclaimation ended slavery in the south in1863. Slavery in the north was legal until the passage of the 13th Amendment in 1865.

 

[JakeStarkey]

S. J. must be a Democrat if he is supporting putting the flag back up.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

It is Republican Governors that are taking the flag down after it was Democrat Governors that put it up.

Only because their hands have been forced.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Dumbshits like you are too stupid to see that this is a first amendment issue.

Nothing is stopping you from flying a confederate flag outside your home

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Strom Thurmond

 

[JakeStarkey]

Greg Abbott, Rick Perry.

 

[boilermaker55]

What a lame post. No One!!!! Ever said you cannot fly a flag on your property. Or put one up in our window.
DO it and get over your lame stupid reasoning.

Then why are all these republicans running around butt hurt about it?

All we hear is how racist the Dems USED to be or are now. But when the flag came down no one but republicans cried foul about it.

Seems strange. Why would the republicans be for a dem symbol (as they call it)?

It is Republican Governors that are taking the flag down after it was Democrat Governors that put it up.

Yeah so why are republicans all butt hurt about it? And blaming it on "progressives"?

Dumbshits like you are too stupid to see that this is a first amendment issue. We are tired of seeing our freedoms systematically and incrementally taken away. I don't expect you to understand that since the only thing you can see is D's and R's.

I don't want to fly one and that's not the point. The federal government has no business being involved in state matters. The flag was not flying in front of a federal building.

The federal government hasn't ordered any state to remove the flag from state property.

I said "some". And some documentation to back them up would be nice too (unlike Jake's post).

Not yet, but will you have a problem with it if and when they do?

 

[JakeStarkey]

You as a racist Democrat, S. J. have every right and motivation to fly a confederate flag.

And you have every right to kiss my ass, troll.

I thought you were a gay, racist Democrat. Thanks for proving it.
