While it is used by racist ,on tacky redneck movies and crass consumerism it is hardly reason to ban it given the treat to first amendment. Further more it is too hard for police to enforce such a trivial law with out complaint. No one ever told me to take down the old ensign though it won't work in a tacky redneck movie.Stogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852841950131130696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483090538063099295.post-66719578177417238142014-09-02T17:28:29.651-07:002014-09-02T17:28:29.651-07:00i think your original quote was okay.

Their war was one of aggression, but the Confederacy's war was one of defense -- resisting the Northern invasion.Stogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852841950131130696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483090538063099295.post-20650613689163993752014-09-02T16:46:27.995-07:002014-09-02T16:46:27.995-07:00No doubt one of the reasons for the continuing sla...No doubt one of the reasons for the continuing slander against the Confederacy is exactly that: the statists fear we will bring it back. I am so fed up right now, I would opt for secession in a minute than to continue with this sinking ship.Stogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852841950131130696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483090538063099295.post-54918481545822073032014-09-02T02:00:19.559-07:002014-09-02T02:00:19.559-07:00Sorry, you might take this the last paragraph out ...Sorry, you might take this the last paragraph out of context. When I said that the all of Germany suffered because they "failed", I meant they failed to stop Hitler before he took them on his apocalyptic charge for world conquest. Not that they failed to stop the Allies. Just had clear that. Stepping off my soapbox now...Stogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852841950131130696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483090538063099295.post-40992968710627947272014-09-02T01:55:33.246-07:002014-09-02T01:55:33.246-07:00We need to stop talking about remembering the Conf...We need to stop talking about remembering the Confederate States of America and start talking about bringing it back. The United States of America is over with and done. It's a sinking ship and it's time we to quote the movie Fight Club, stop "polishing brass on the Titanic" and jump on a lifeboat. It's that or we get dragged down with the North into oblivion when the Yankee, in his mad quest for a "New World Order" (my apology for the Alex Jones phraseology, but that is more or less what the Yankees want. A global hierarchy with them on top and everyone else on the bottom, including the South) finally pick a fight with someone bites back and they lay waste to them, as well as a us or worse yet, succeed.<br /><br /><br />Think of all the people of Germany who had nothing to do Hitler's crimes, and yet still paid dearly for them when the Allied armies (the Russians in particular) laid waste to their homeland and carved what remained up for themselves because they failed. That will be the South's fate if we continue to foolishly pledge our fealty to this so-called "Union"Stogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852841950131130696noreply@blogger.com
