I believe they or we have the right to fly the confederate flag.
It's not about gays , it's appears to be another racial divide stirred up by the administration of Obama.

The southern people have this flag to represent their loss and bravery during a civil war. They admire their heritage as most people do. It is their culture , as the blacks or gays have their culture. I will stop at this point before I say something about my own beliefs .
Anyway they have the right to fly the flag .
Hold on to your rights people , in a few months most will be destroyed. You will march to the tune of the liberal socialist society.

I'm not clear what the definition of "ours" is.The last time I checked,our flag was the one with the stars and stripes on it.

Theirs stands for perverted acts, the Confederate flag is a symbol of history and the southern culture.

So is our state flags and county flags ect. If you think banning a flag will stop racism and hatred then maybe you should have government officials running your life. You are the problem

Anyone can fly the flag anytime they want, so what is the problem. Just as anyone has the right to look ignorant.

It now is OK to fly the flag of perversion but not OK to fly the flag under which thousands of Americans gallantly gave their lives.

The Battle Flag of Virgina has nothing to do with slavery, that flag was not even in use during the peak of slavery. It was only in use during the war to identify the Army of Virginia during the civil war. If that is to be banned than all flags from all slave states!

8:25 What are you looking at? The bottom flag clearly has STARS and STRIPES as well.

"Anyone can fly the flag anytime they want, so what is the problem."

Purposely obtuse? You know damn well that social progressives and their lackeys in the media, government, and corporate America are making every effort to marginalize anyone who displays this emblem. It's a full-court press from all the usual suspects. Personally, I couldn't care less what your kind think of me or my flag. And you damn sure won't say anything to my face - unless backed by a mob. You're welcome to your opinion, but don't act like there is no national effort to stigmatize certain individuals. Under certain circumstances, that would be intolerance and bigotry. But I guess you people are kind of selective about that sort of thing, aren't you?

Everyone has a right to fly the flag of his/her choice, even odious flags like those of ISIS and the Nazis. Go ahead and plant one in your yard. It is protected under the first amendment. Likewise, businesses have the right not to display symbols of which they disapprove.

SC Governor Nikki Haley said any private entity may display the confederate flag. She wants it removed from the statehouse. Even so, that is up the legislature, the democratically elected representatives of the people.

Next thing you know some liberal meat head will tell me I can't fly my Pow Mia flag because it's black and white. Years ago we dad a foreign exchange student from the Netherlands living with us and we flew the flag of Holland along side of our American flag. You got a problem with that, come see me.

This is so wrong, my kid gets sent home from school for wearing a t shirt with a small confederate flag and a cannon on it, yet Homo's can wear theirs at school, offending all God fearing people. There was one kid the last week of school that had on a shirt that said, "Life Sucks, and so do I", and nothing was done!

I dare ALL of you to put a great big Confederate flag in your front yard if you feel that strongly about it.

Will we also deny the next civil war flag? The next war will be a direct cause of the washington imbeciles, gender perverted mind set, and in power race mongers.

Lock and load people, it will be here before you know it.

It is called the Battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia.

Please get it right if you want someone to believe you.

Nikki Haley proved that she is weak with her knee jerk reaction to say the flag was a symbol of racism and that it needs to come down and off government properties. State Senator Tom Davis has also been on that band wagon trying to ban the Battle Flag. Gov. David Beasley pushed to have that flag taken off the Statehouse in 2000 and he got his wish, but a law was enacted that it would take a super majority to have it removed from it's current location. Because of Beasley's stupidity he lost his bid for re-election and hasn't been heard from since. That flag is an important part of American and South Carolina history and should not be distorted in any way. I had a lot of respect and support for Nikki Haley, but she has proven that she is a RINO and dangerous to the party. I hope the party drops her like a used condom. While they are at it get rid of Mitt Romney and any of the presidential candidates that want the flag banned or taken down. We don't need RINO's accusing their own people of being racist.

We can't because we have been shamed into hiding it. We don't want our families attacked by mobs of blacks or have them burn our house down.

What's funny is if the media made an effort to support the battle flag the idiots would jump on that ban wagon just like they did the Fag Flag. Those mental midgets ride the fence and go which ever way the wind blows.

I don't have a Confederate flag, 11:29, but if I did, and if I displayed it, I DARE you or anyone else to try to do something with it.
They'd get a full mag and a chance to fly right below it.

Interesting comment. If you 'dare' folks to show the flag in their yard, you must feel there is some consequence to that action. What would that be?

Anonymous said...

Just do it 1:37-No consequences will occur I assure you or I would never have suggested such a thing.Have your wife and kids raise and lower it each day per protocol.

The Confederate Battle Flag will always be my heritage. Taking it down from state properties in the South proves that politicians are weak. How convenient to take down a powerful symbol and replace it with a weak symbol of a mental illness. The RINO's have exposed themselves.

Anonymous said...

Funny how the Federal Government made this a Confederate Flag down, Gay Pride Flag up and everyone fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Anonymous said...

I believe every citizen has the right to display any flag the would like to but as far as state buildings I really think only the American flag and the state flag should be displayed.
