Baltimore Mayor Wants Md To Stop Issuing Confederate License Plates
BALTIMORE, MD (ANN) - Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake wants Maryland to stop issuing specialty license plates featuring the Confederate Flag.
According to the "Baltimore Sun" a spokesman for the Mayor says she finds the flag to be divisive and offensive.
The call for change comes after South Carolina's governor said she wanted to remove the flag from the State House following the massacre at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston.
I don't think you can get these plates anymore. I may be wrong, but I thought they quit issuing new plates wit the flag. If you already had one, it was still valid.
When she can do her job, then she can tell others how to run the state. I hate, yes hate, Baltimore, and this sorry excuse of a state that is Maryland. I cannot wait to leave it and the entire east coast. You can have it. Maryland will be the first democrap state to go bankrupt. Mark my words and get out while you can.
"I cannot wait to leave it and the entire east coast." Please come back to this board and let me know where you are going to escape this stupidity. It is rampant across this once-great country. I don't believe that you can escape it.
Left for WV and loving it. It is awesome. The only minorities that r heard came 2 escape their own kind, and r welcome 2 b here. My kids public school has GOD BLESS AMERICA across the main entrance in 1 ft high letters, they say the pledge of allegiance. Any discipline problems are dealt with swiftly and fairly.This state is truely wild and wonderful!
"Little by little we are having our rights taken away." Correct. Stop for one moment and think this thru. In order to foster unity and stamp out a supposed 'symbol of hatred' a large segment of the population are being stereotyped, judged, and found guilty. Apparently, some of us are being denied symbols of our heritage because some others find them 'offensive'. Yet, if I find LGBT plates offensive, I'm expected to suck it up and deal with it. Seems somewhat intolerant, narrow-minded, and prejudiced to me.
It's not even the Confederate flag! It's the battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia, the army led by Robert E. Lee. The Confederate is the Stars and Bars.
Bottom line we as a nation need a black president this would stop all the hate. If he was black he would never allow us to go backwards but only move forwards evolve to be even better. Right?!
Owners and flyers of the Confederate flag are going to have to register under a new national policy. Those that embrace this symbol of hate will now be called, "Racist Terrorist". They must register and be photographed so that victims can see on the internet whom might attack them, or discriminate against them. All symbols of hate must be surrender to the NAACP for burning. Confederate flag owners have 24 hours to comply or die.
The civil war was about so much more thaN slavery. Slavery was horrible and a disgraceful scar upon our nation that will never be erased. Unfortunately, racist redneck hateful people adopted the flag to use for theor white supremacy. The flag is now associated with hate. I wish people could look beyond the hate. I wish the government would spend the money on psa's about the truth behind the history of the flag instead of wasting the money on the argument. the flag only offends because racists claimed it when it was never theirs to claim. Truly a shame. I would never fly it because it offends. It should come down but the discussion should be had inschools. Children should understand that it is not a bad symbol. knowledge is power! this discussion is happening now because our country is an emotional wreck.

Can someone please post the pictures of this douche bag mayor sexting where she is half naked? I have one that I am willing to give to Joe if he will post it on his blog.
One murderer and we abandon our history. The Confederate Flag was not meant to be a racist thing everyone forgets it was brother against brother, the North against the South, the north had the Union Jack and the south had the confederate flag, it was not about racism this was the reason given for one man's craziness and one small racist section of nuts. We have now managed to let one man take lives, history and our common sense!

As far as I'm concerned she's devisive and offensive and why can't we get rid of her.
