Why...for all Americans...the Confederate Flag Must Stand

[Bush92]

The mass murder carried out in Charleston S.C. by a lone nut has instantly been politicized by the NYC, Boston, Washington D.C. Democratic Party, liberal media, power structure. Their Orwellian attempts at changing our American fabric to their exclusive and mindless automaton views have never been more apparent, and never more shameless since the murder of 9 people by a lone nut. They immediately exploited the situation by casting the confederate battle flag as a symbol of racism. If you live in New York City, Boston, Chicago, or L.A. then you are as far out of touch with reality as you can be with small town America. What you call "fly over country." We are not racist, we work hard for a living everyday, and we DO NOT SPONGE TAX DOLLARS thank you. It is considered disgraceful thing I don't care how much the Palace of Versailles inside the beltway liberals want to portray people different. This current movement to ban the confederate flag is an attempt by NYC, Chicago, Boston, L.A. liberals to subjugate the people of the hinterland. There are political differences between rural and urban. The Democrats will waste no opportunity in portraying it as racist. Why? Because all those FDR Democrats and Harry Truman Democrats are not cry baby socialist. So now they race bait them. the confederate flag stands as a symbol of country folks vs. NYC,Chicago, or Washington D.C. folks. NOT RACISM. Next thing the PC Marxist will want is George Washington off the dollar because he owned slaves, Andrew Jackson for the same, monuments brought down, culture changed, and as college prof's teach " all White males are evil" and "every White person should feel guilty about slavery." Bullshit. I worked hard for everything I got...I was not born to privilege and I am not a racist. But the NYC cable news, Democratic Party want to to make all things "WHITE"...racist and including the confederate battle flag, pick up trucks, 4 wheel drives, and all White people all their culture and heritage wiped from the history of the United States by the "Department of Truth."

I want to thank Bush-92 for pointing out the kind of dumb, knuckle-dragging person the GOP panders to.

Hey, guy, the problem with your "country boy" argument is that without the tax support of them there city folks, you guys would be living in shacks. The fact is, rural America has subsidized electricity, subsidized farming, subsidized roads, etc. You whine about Freedom, but our agriculture system is probably the best example of socialism we have in America.

But that socialism dun-der makes you mad, Cleetus!

"City folks" do not support hard working traditional family values oriented people of our rural areas. The narcissism of the liberal elite is displayed in your post and it's portrayal of all citizens that do not live in a place like NYC are dumb, ignorant, hillbillies. Also, country boys like Chris Kyle stand-up and defend this nation. For most big city boys green just ain't their color...not in fashion. Besides how could a liberal go to war without having a cafe latte and MSNBC to start the day.

the only narcissism displayed here seems to be coming from you and you're belief in this mystical 'country boy' value system

No, liberals are the most egocentric people on earth. "Not only am smarter than everybody...but I will tell you how you must live your life or I will get into the media and be a snarky asshole for a living and people will think I'm funny."

didn't you just make a post about how superior and somehow more american your 'country boys' are?

do you not have any sense of irony or the capability for self reflection

Liberal totalitarian Washington D.C. plan.

Let's see some evidence of Leaders of the South (whoever the fuck they are) along with Davis and others saying what you claim they said.

Happily

The Confederate Cause in the Words of Its Leaders - The Atlantic

You too know, that among us, white men have an equality resulting from a presence of a lower caste, which cannot exist where white men fill the position here occupied by the servile race. The mechanic who comes among us, employing the less intellectual labor of the African, takes the position which only a master-workman occupies where all the mechanics are white, and therefore it is that our mechanics hold their position of absolute equality among us. - Jefferson Davis

Very few actual quotes. The above quote doesn't state what you claimed. Where is he saying that the Civil War was about slavery? Oh that's right, it doesn't.

I think it pretty much speaks for itself.

 

[JoeB131]

Wrong. Most of the warriors in my INFANTRY platoon were rednecks and fighters. So Jammaal Malik Muhammed Whatever Whatever, I would think you would know this if you were not a fucking pouge HQ shit bag.Also, this totally misrepresented stataistic a bout food stamps and federal aid can be put down once and for all when liberal stats are exposed by counting military bases and military personel as "government subsidized." Your a fucking idiot liberal that tries to be too cute and too smart by half because you watch MSNBC all day and get talking points from assholes like Chris Matthews.

I was in an infantry unit, and most of the 11B's in my unit were black and hispanic.

Food Stamps are meant to subsidize the Agri-business. It keeps demands up to keep prices up to the point where you can afford to grow food. We can also add into that Ethanol Subsidies, Rural Electrification, most of the highway system... all designed to subsidize the rural population.

Our Agriculture is truly socialist. Sorry you don't see that.

The Tsarnaev brothers weren't portrayed as just 'nuts'. Major Hasan wasn't portrayed as just a nut. The guys who attacked the Mohammed cartoonfest weren't portrayed as just nuts. The shoe bomber wasn't just some lone nut?

Why all of the sudden a terrorist is just a 'nut'.

Obama apparently liked the Confederate Flag in 2012 as this little gem has just been revealed.

Are you honestly too stupid to realize that is an anti-Confederate flag message?

Yes, I suppose you are.

 

[Lonestar_logic]

I think the problem is not necessarily the flag, but how we've coddled the South.

We've let them rewrite history ("The war wasn't about slavery") and keep their honor and praise their bravery in individual battles. We didn't put Davis and Stephens and Lee on trial for their treason. We let the Klan and Jim Crow happen.

The Civil War was a great example of winning the war and losing the peace.

Now compare that to World War II. We didn't let the Germans rewrite history. We didn't let the surviving Nazis get away. We hunted them to the ends of the earth.

So no one but a complete nut flies a Swastika flag.

The war wasn't about slavery and a little common sense would tell you that. First of all, the North had slaves, secondly only ten percent of white southerners owned slaves. So explain why slavery would be such a big issue when both sides had them and in such small percentages?

For the South secession was all about Slavery. For the North it was all about stopping secession, Slavery or not. It was a big issue because 4 million slaves held a substantial value.

Total Slave Population in United States by State

Believe what you want.

Snopes already took apart that hoax. But it won't stop your ilk from quoting it anyway. Facts really have nothing to do with your perspective.
