If you don't share my opinion it must be cowardice, therefore expressing it should be illegal.
Shooting in south Carolina? Attack the flag!
Dog wet in the carpet? Attack the flag!
Hot weather today? Attack the flag!
Japanese killing whales? Attack the flag!
Pick a Target, Freeze it, personalize it, Polarize it.
The Issue is never the issue, The Issue is the Revolution.
What other targets have they lined up to attack when they win this one!
NOT FOR FAME OR REWARD
NOT FOR PLACE OR FOR RANK
NOT LURED BY AMBITION
OR GOADED BY NECESSITY
BUT IN SIMPLE
OBEDIENCE TO DUTY
AS THEY UNDERSTOOD IT
THESE MEN SUFFERED ALL
SACRIFICED ALL
DARED ALL AND DIED
CONFEDERATE MEMORIAL ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY
The argument over the Battle flag makes about as much sense as today banning the team colors Reds, Blues, Greens, Whites, that led to the Nika Riots back in 532 AD.
It is a diversion for WHAT!
Liberalism is what makes liberalism stupid.
The simple truth is that the Confederate flag shouldnt fly on government property.

Having made such an inane statement, its obvious to me that you can’t handle the truth. (Where have I heard that before?)
Oooh,what you said. Watch out for the speech and thought police.
All this fuss over a dammed flag.
MICHELL OBAMA
Just as soon as they finish taking down the flag from the last time.
"Tell" in the sense of order or demand, no. That doesn't work anyway.
But "tell" in the sense of recommend or suggest, sure. They could do that, and they might, too, once a suitable interval has passed.
The South could not live in the knowledge that its heroic sacrifices were offered in a wicked cause, and its response was to excise from religion the notion of sin and virtue, and replace it with social engineering. Woodrow Wilsons father was a Southern clergyman who preached a biblical justification of slavery; as president, Woodrow Wilson replaced American foreign policy with social engineering on a global scale. The North could not live with its own enormous sacrifice; as I argued elsewhere, Americans decided that they would rather not have a God who demanded sacrifice from them on this scale 10% of military-age Northern men, 30% of military-age Southern men. They did not want to be a Chosen People held accountable for their transgressions. They wanted instead a reticent God who withheld his wrath while they set out to make the world amenable to their own purposes. The New England elite went to war as convinced Abolitionists singing of the coming of God who trampled out the vintage of the grapes of wrath and wielded a terrible swift sword. They came back convinced that no idea could be so righteous or so certain as to merit the terrible sacrifices of their generation.
Sounds like he's juggling "The Civil War is to blame for everything" and "Woodrow Wilson is to blame for everything" and not doing a very good job of it.
If democrats are so against a flag that associates with slavery, or they going to diseherite their relatives? slave owners/Plantation owners were mostly DEMOCRATS!!!!

No one has maintained that it is an official flag of the state, however, if a state chooses, through its elected representatives, to display the flag, then how is that wrong.
“Those who control the present, control the past and those who control the past control the future.” George Orwell
Are you content to allow the liberal media to control your future?
Democrats will really be sorry to have to take down the banner they swore to all these years. Their racist bias and bigotry will not be stopped by the loss of their flag. Their plantations are no longer just in the South they are in every blue dominated city now.
Sounds like you’re pretty proud of what once was the Confederacy. Good for you.
*grin*
Would have really been hard for Abraham Lincoln to acknowledge them as Federal property. Lincoln died April 15, 1865, the Fourteenth Amendment was not ratified until 9 July 1868
“Southerners NEVER get tired of Yankees telling them how stupid they are.”
And quite often Yankees never tire of proving them right.
