That's really funny. I wonder of everyone did that, what might happen.





Too many people are PC, I for one wish more would fly it and fly it proud!


I'm not pc, but I gotta diverge with you on this one. I have black friends and I know this represents a shameful era in our history. For my friends sake, I am against it.

Not really. The slavery problem was nationwide. For all its problems, the members of the CSA were correct to assert their right to secede. (for those who don't know, the civil war was not over slavery. It was about several things, including conflicts over nullification and secession.) Lincoln himself said in a letter to Horace Greely "My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do less whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors; and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views."


That's one letter from one man. The Civil War was about slavery....period!





its more than that, that one man was a Presidentmost likely playing the political game to keep his position and respect and buy some time

he wrote that letter responding to horace greeley, and then the very next month, he freed the slaves

The idiots could not tell the difference between their own state flag and the Confederate Battle flag is telling a lot about their schooling. Just imagine if they had been working at the state capital of South Carolina, Columbus and put up an Islamic flag instead...both have a crescent moon...yee ha! It's Jihad time!laugh
