Meanwhile, most of the other declared and probable Republican candidates cave to the media and social justice posse.

Thank you, Mr. Cruz.

I respect him for this, I must say.

Cruz. Don’t kowtow. Do. Not. Bend.

Stand firm. Wave a flamethrower at the snowball rolling downhill.

I proudly voted for Lee Bright when he was running against Graham good for him and good for Cruz.

Since the governor of SC knuckled under so quickly, and sold out her state, do you think she has a chance for re-election, or higher office?

My question would be, if they succeed at getting the flag removed, what is the next thing to get removed? How long will it be till they start "removing" people? I don't think they ever intend to cease and desist.

Well to hear the anti-Cruz trolls, this standing on principle seems to be in contradiction to his plan to trade away America’s sovereignty, to collect with his wife a big old bonus check from Goldman-Sachs, to be a secret member of the new world order, to be plotting to give Obama all sorts of new powers, etc.

Nope, this article about Ted calling a Stalinist purge a Stalinist purge can’t be true. He’s got to be for it because he’s controlled by Soros according to the newly minted anti-Cruz trolls.

He should’ve demanded Democrats apologize for putting confederate symbols on state property. Make democrats own their confederate heritage.

The next Logical Step is to have the Department of Re-Education “delete” any Reference of the Civil War from the History Books.

After that, they can dig up all the Bodies of Confederate Soldiers and Cremate them inside the all the Coal Fired Plans that Obama shut down.

They can Dynamite all the Confederate War Memorials like ISIS is doing to Historical Landmarks in Iraq.

Liberals, ISIS without the Weaponry.

1. Flags don’t kill people. People (with weapons) kill people.
2. The issue with the Confederate battle flag is complex. Yes, some hate groups have co-opted it, but at the same time, it represents resistance against what increasing numbers of people see as an intrusive, meddlesome central government that does not share their values.
3. It’s as if the United States is slowly coming apart at the seams. You already have 2 Americas. The secular America of the northeast, mid-Atlantic/Rust Belt and Pacific Coast; the traditional America of the Southeast, Texas and most of the Midwest and mountain West. It’s a classic example of what divorce lawyers call irreconcilable differences. The USA is more divided than at any time since 1865. Hopefully, if separation does come, it’ll be peaceful

"As battle flags were powerful military symbols, great significance was placed on the capture of an enemy flag. This would often lead to great pomp and ceremony."

The battle rages...

Conferate Flag

compared the calls to remove the Confederate flag from the capitol building in his home state to a "Stalinist purge."

Stalinist is as Stalinist does ...

There is no way a rational person can look at this hysteria and see anything but a Stalinist purge. I can't believe I am even seeing this, with everyone trying to one-up the next by being more irrational.

Yeah, I’m one of those who thought it was past time for Southern states to stop celebrating the flag.

But the whiplash purging of it from public commerce or acceptability is indeed appalling. What’s worse is seeing how easily social media mob rule leads to businesses, governments and individuals immediately enforcing an extreme suppression of speech.

It’s not dissimilar to how a live-and-let-live acceptance of gay marriage immediately makes it discriminatory or oppressive to refer to a wife or husband, or to teach other than bizarre theories of sex and gender down to the kindergarten level.

PC enforcement gets only faster, more authoritative, and more oppressive all the time.

That is why I support Cruz.

All of the Trump people got on here and bashed Cruz for selling out...well, Trump on this issue sold out.

Cruz was solid, as usual.

Go Cruz!
