You said we do not fly losers flags at museums and battlefields, yet we have posted links showing that we do, indeed, do both. Just admit you are wrong. I have done it in other threads when proven wrong, yet for some reason you seem incapable of saying that you were mistaken.

Back to the subject at hand. Nash farms is a battlefield/Museum. Tell us why you think the Confederate Battle Flag should be removed from a Battlefield/Museum. There is one at Gettysburgh, why not Nash Farm?

There isn't a specific reason for the Confederate flag to fly at a Confederate Battlefield?

It's an American battlefield.


Ok? So why is it ok to fly the flag at Gettysburgh and not at Nash farm?

Your point being?

You are one narcissistic individual incapable of admitting you could possibly be wrong. Pathetic.
Nash farm is a Museum, yet you can't have a flag at the museum is your position.

Look in the mirror. You are the one picking a private property as the cross to die on.

Confederate first and second national flags fly at Fort Sumter. Should those come down?

Then why is it ok for them to fly the flag? Shouldn't the left be more interested in squashing that?

IT IS A MUSEUM. A Civil War MUSEUM! We can't have a Confederate flag in a Civil War Museum, now?

I'm pretty sure that would be you. We have shown numerous examples of the losers flags being flown over museums and battlefields. You know....the ones you said didn't happen?

ETA
By the way. The Confederate flag flies at the Gettysburg Battlefield, too.

No, revisionist history is pretending that the Civil War wasn't about slavery

Are you above admitting you were wrong? You can do it. I have faith.

Can you point out where I was wrong? That single British flag above the mass graves?

Sorry, but losing flags aren't a requirement at public museums. The snowflakes who are closing the museum will have to turn over the keys and a new group will take over if need be.

You said flags of losers aren't flown. You were wrong. It's OK. You can admit it. I know your mom tells you that you are perfect but...guess what...she's lying to you.

The UK made a special request to fly their flag in that general area, and we made an exception to the rule. If the Confederacy would make a similar request then... Wait. There is no Confederacy anymore. That's a relief.

So flags of losers aren't flown except the British flag in Chalmette. Statement revised.
