I said "couldn't have", dumbass. Obviously it could have been that scenario..........
What a stupid way to response to facts. "OH but what if" "couldn't have" We know that bullshite you were saying did not happen. So why bring it up?

Anyone with any understanding of history knows the Southern states flew the battle flag well before the Civil rights movement ever started.

Government vs corporate actions are different. I don't give a shite about a corporation doing whatever they feel will maximize profits related to political issues. A governmental entity that pulled that flag out in defiance of desegregation is ignorant and racist. DWI

You still have that right. People are wanting government to stop flying it.

USA Today reported that Wachovia Corporation (now owned by Wells Fargo) has apologized for its ties to slavery after disclosing that two of its historical predecessors owned enslaved Africans and accepted them as payment. “On behalf of Wachovia Corporation, I apologize to all Americans, and especially to African-Americans and people of African descent,” said Ken Thompson, Wachovia chairman and chief executive officer, in the statement released late Wednesday. “We are deeply saddened by these findings.”
Hahaha, holeeeee shite. Yeah, their historical "predecessors" slaves helped build a billion dollar company.
Are you deeply saddened to find out that some free blacks owned slaves before the war?

How about this, I'll wait on your evidence that "no one flew that flag until the Civil Rights movement."
I mean, you must have proof that not one person, nor local government building, ever flew the flag prior to the CRM, right?

Typical white conservative logic...
"Black people slavery happened a long time ago, it does not have anything to do with problems you face today"
"We need to hold on to our flag and place it on all of our public buildings as a constant reminder! It's about history and heritage! History like this cannot be erased!"

Real question, how does it feel that even on the internet you can't keep your word?
Can't even be a man of your word.

Is a lying sack of shite. Do not believe one word he types on here. He is the epitome of an ignorant individual.
Case and Point
Did not believe something I typed and called me out on it.
Insisted it was actually factual. He wanted that the party admit wrong doing and this wasn't something that just happened by chance.
Presented facts with multiple links. He deflects.
He abandoned the thread.

Wachovia revealed on June 1 that one of the banks put hundreds of slaves to work on railroads and another accepted more than 100 more as collateral on defaulted loans in the 1800s. Wachovia, one of the nation's largest banks, was required by the city of Chicago to investigate its past to participate in the redevelopment of a housing project on the city's South Side

Did you notice that white republicans are the ones who are taking these flags down?

I completely agree with his 4th point. I've wanted the flag down and pretty much all confederate flags down for years, but I do think it's funny people use this event as a platform to take them down. This event should have next to no connection.
I couldn't disagree more with his take on the 5th point though. To say that things instantly went back to square one after the Civil War is just moronic.

That guy is clueless of Canada's own race issues.
Secondly, after further research today, I'm not sure if the holocaust was worse than the transcontential slave trade and the shackling of the black diaspora across the world. It might be the westerns biggest (diversity) accomplishment and greatest sin

If you think those slaves played a role in the building of that company then you're delusional.
You know, those window cleaners at NASA helped put a man on the moon.

Most people have no idea why the civil war was started, or what the main reason was for it.

Canada has been trying to ethnically cleanse itself in a many of its larger cities. The whites there feel like their spaces are being overcrowded and overran by Asian immigrants.
Don't let Canada fool you with the cover blind crap.

You never knew a slave nor did your mom or your moms mom but keep up the good fight.
