Need to tear down the great wall of China, and blow up all Egyptian and Roman structures. But of course the first man to have slaves in this country was black,( oh the horror)

I hope we have seen the last of the mass shootings! I mean, c'mon, what can we do now? They have banned all the flags....

My grandson came over the other day. I noticed he had a "Rebel Flag" plate on the front of his pickup. High Five Grandson!

We should probably just go ahead and bulldoze all the confederate memorials and cemeteries while we're at it.

The thing I find appalling is this was a war between Americans. So by denying the battle flag, memorials etc it tries to hide a part of our history

Watch in 10 years the CSA will be taught as more or less terrorists and lumped with jihadists


Someday. That’s a dangerous word. It’s really just a code for ‘never’.

Well, look what Germany did after the war. Flying a nazi flag will land you in prison.

But then the Confederacy never operated death camps, persued genocide or global domination.

There are still enough of us around to counter their arguments. Most people who criticize the Civil War have never really studied it and make wild accusations that they can't prove.

The next civil war will be even more appalling.
