Don´t get me wrong, many solid Southerners aren´t ideologically racists, but for some reason, I don´t put you there.

I know all about the cornerstone speech. I know about the revival of the flag as a reaction to integration. I know about all of it. I don't give a shite. The flag is my flag. The flag is the flag of the South. That is how I feel, and there are plenty more who feel the same way.

When that flag is still flying over South Carolina this time next year, you will know I'm not alone.

it's not my flag, and it's not my states flag. in fact, it's no ones flag anymore. it's a relic of a dark history of this country.

don't care about how you feel. you yourself have already implied you don't care about facts. this isn't about how you feel.

To me, this is embarrassing.

As a southerner, with a family who grew up on dirt roads, graduated from a University that was burned to the ground by Union soldiers, and a descendant of a Confederate soldier - this is silly.

The Confederate Flag is not the flag of the South.

The Confederacy certainly was, and there wouldn't have been any secession - thus no war, had the institution of slavery never been threatened.

Civil War = war over slavery.

Wrong.

The Confederate flag was removed from a pole on the South Carolina capitol grounds early Saturday morning by activists, but state employees returned the flag to its position not long after the incident.

Probably very little. Her 40% of the take attorney is negotiating it now, methinks (and will get her the worst possible deal).

Who cares about a flag?

This is America. People are entitled to their own opinion. People need to stop crying about an opinion being different from their own.

When somebody tells me I cant do something like this, I do it just out of spite.

If people would stop acting so butthurt about an old flag, it wouldn't even be an issue.

I'm white and people can fly black panther and Malcolm X flags till they're blue in the face. I don't give a crap.

Grow up and get some thicker skin. Cry about something else.

I'm offended at those claiming to be offended. Everything is offensive.
