Re: Confederate Flag

LMAO you're pretty funny but the South is fighting back. I saw plenty of Confederate flags flying high in my neck of the woods. People are angry and showing it

Are you aware that the current Confederate flag is not the official Confederate flag, and that it was raised during the Civil Rights area in support of segregation?
 
Re: Confederate Flag

Revisionist history my behind! That is what the ones who are trying to do away with the Confederate flag now want.

Sorry, honey, but you haven't posted anything but historical rubbish since I first encountered you.

The south fighting back to keep racism and segration alive? Well, isn't that just precious.

Flaunt em, if you got em, because that flag will soon be delegated to the dust bin of history where it belongs.

If it didn't come from her granddaddy's tall tales and fish stories.........then probably not.
 
Re: Confederate Flag

It's a fantastic part of history. Destroying them would be like isis destroying those old buildings. At least it hasn't come to that yet.

Just more lunacy from the white people ( I am one). We'll decide we want the flag back eventually.

Not if my fellow Southerners have anything to say about it! People are angry.

Yes I am quite aware. It is the Battle Flag which the Southern Army took into battle with them. I know there were 3 national flags as well as the Bonnie Blue also. So the South took a while to integrate whoop de do. My grandparents were so anti integration that they sent my uncle to military school in Virginia at Fork Union Military Academy. Most kids in that day probably saw military school as punishment, but my uncle thrived and still loves it even though he has been out of school for over 50 years.
 
Re: Confederate Flag

Hmmm let me consult the dictionary because I do not think rubbish has been added to the definition of the word fact.

It's way to late for you to start consulting references, horsegirl. You can't salvage any of the historical nonsense you've posted over and over at this late stage. It's become your trademark.

You mean they're still angry they lost the war? Oh my, whatever shall we do?

No people are still angry at the attempt to remove the Confederate flag from just about everywhere and are showing it by flying it high and proud.

TRUTH is NOT "nonsense" thank you very much. Its just not what the revisionists want you to think actually happened so they can further demonize the South.

Unfortunately, to the rest of the country they just look like racists and aren't fooling anybody except themselves.

Except the black Southerners. But their opinions only matter about 3/5th's as much as a white Southerner...

Just because you inhabit a fantasy world where up is down, front is back and in is out doesn't mean we have to play along with it.

How was that again? (Top: Detroit Bottom: Atlanta)

Um.

1. Many of those skyscrapers are in Midtown Atlanta, most of which were built in recent decades. Midtown looked like **** half a century ago.
2. Pan that camera 90 degrees to the west and travel one mile. Now let's see how the two neighborhoods look.
 
Re: Confederate Flag

You would be surprised what is also in the Daughters of the Confederacy magazines. They have actual writings and excerpts of journals from soldiers themselves. Unfortunately I gave all of my magazines away to a horse trainer friend of mine (I kept the one with my grandma's name in the "In Memoriam" section after she passed in 1998)

Sure....

Oh snap. (yeah, I know that saying is "so five minutes ago," but seemed so appropriate in this instance).

I needed a jolt into reality, as I'm still laughing at horse girl telling us we need a history lesson.
