Pretty sure science is losing out to conservative Christians with creationism and conservative oil puppet politicians in regards to global warming.

Considering that religion is at its lowest support level ever, Scruffy doubts that is the case.

Removing the Confederate flag from all stores is the right move - it will solve racism, black on black crime, inner city gangs, bad inner city schools and the issue of broken homes.

We always focus on the wrong thing, which helps our politicians since they don't have to make any tough decisions as long as we're focusing on a flag.

I don't even know how to begin to address the idiocy of comments like this.

I suspect far more people are offended by this than the Confederate Battle Flag:




I expect all of retailers to immediately cease selling it.

When are people going to realize that this is all a political game and that they are being played like pawns on a chess board? You think the white rich Democrats give a rat's behind whether the stars and bars are flying in SC? No. But it presented an opportunity to rally the voting base and take pot shots at Republicans who dare to state up for state's rights and freedom of speech.

Don't be a pawn. Think for yourself.

They line right up with some of your posts, so I'm thinking you probably could address it if you so choose.

Very smart point of view. Sad, but true.

It's kind of tricky My dad was born in Africa, his family is African, and my mom is white. So technically I'm an African American, just not the kind that gets special privilege on being offended.

And now I'm offended by my lack of privilege

No, that's not what it's about. It's about understanding that symbols matter. And what that flag symbolizes both presently and historically is not good.


I'm no defender of the battle flag but where does this stop with the SJWs?

We dropped a bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki under Old Glory. You could make an argument.

Realizing that would involve the ability to think and reason.

People who are "offended" by such inane crap as a flag generally lack the ability to think or reason.

As someone has said many times before, "how easily you are offended is inversely proportional to your intelligence".

What choo got against black socks?

How else is Scruffy supposed to symbolize his walking all over the black man if he can't wear black socks?

Yep because a symbol of human bondage where humans are treated as a commodity is similar to seeing someone's underwear.

Posts like these only prove that most of the people defending that flag are ignorant racists.
