It's time to wave bye-bye to the Confederate flag — from the "Dukes of Hazzard" car, at least.
That's right, in a somewhat controversial decision, Warner Bros., the studio that owns the theatrical, DVD and licensing rights to the franchise, has decided to remove the flag from all future versions of General Lee.
But how do Bo and Luke Duke feel about this move?
There's no official statement from the fictional cousins just yet, though a spokesperson from the "Dukes of Hazzard" toy company confirmed, "Starting January 1, 2013, all 'Dukes of Hazzard' General Lee vehicles will not be allowed to be produced with the Confederate flag on the top of the vehicle."
We don’t want to hurt anybody little feelings. People living in this country these days are a bunch of sissies, whiners and crybabies. Political correctness sucks!
Anybody got 5K to start a decal webshop?
He’s a bit of info on Boss Hogg: Sorell Booke,the actor who played him,spoke five languages fluently! Incuding Japanese!
The Dukes will now be interracial and Bo will be gay, the Dukes of San Fransicko
Next they will rename The General Lee. Some people might be “offended” by a car named after a Confederate General.
Well, they made Watson a girl in some Sherlock Holmes thing. Is that gonna fly? I ain’t watchin’ !
Then it's not the 'Dukes of Hazzard' Car anymore is it?
Marxists are at it again-—Next, I suppose they will erase the Civil War from the history books and say there were never any Confederate States. General Lee’s statues will have to be torn down, too—and, of course, more deletions from the history books. Got to erase history-—for the Marxists to take over the mindless masses who are unable to “think” because they have no knowledge of anything.
Trying to control the “concepts” children can have. History will be erased—as the Marxists are trying to do in our public schools today, so we have useless idiots walking around -—slaves of the state.
Yeah right in the middle of the 150th for the War between the States/War of Northern Aggression
Beats all you never saw.. been in trouble with the law since the day they was born..
By the time these limp-wristed pansies are finished the General will be a Chevy Volt with a rainbow paint scheme and Bo and Luke will be life partners in Atlanta.
The new General Lee will be a Fisker Karma re-named “The General Idea”, and featuring a gay rainbow flag painted on the roof.
You beat me to it.
The Duke brothers named their car "The GeneRally" after a Finnish videogame - true story
Stupid!
When I was very young, I used to never miss it when it came on TV.
i’ll bet the many replicas that show up at car shows don’t remove the confederate flag!!!
