No. The primary tenant of Progressivism is to destroy.

If he gets his way, he will go after more.

This is how it goes until history is written the way they see fit.

Current flag made in 1965



quote:

The three silver fleurs-de-lis on the blue field represent the French heritage of Acadiana. The fleurs-de-lis is a symbol of the kings of France.

quote:

Louisiana was still under Spanish rule when the Acadians were sent there. Since the Acadians thrived in Louisiana, a portion of the flag pays tribute to Spain. The gold castle on a red field is the coat of arms of Castile, one of the kingdoms that merged to become modern Spain.

So Spain brought the slaves from West Africa
quote:

The gold star on the white field symbolizes Our Lady of the Assumption, the patron saint of Acadiana (the star also symbolizes the active participation of the Cajuns in the American Revolution, as soldiers under General Bernardo de Gálvez, Spanish governor of Louisiana).[

No, but he's going to bring a ton of bad publicity their way if he keeps this dumb shite up.

The flag is awesome the way it is. And it's inspired the best looking football helmets the school has ever used. And maybe my favorite helmet ever.

"So the three petals of the Fleur de Lis and the three towers of castle represent the Trinity, but to be all inclusive of all religious faiths, the green star represents personal, spiritual or religious faiths of all people," he said.


Do he wants a green star to represent all religions. The pale horse.

Dudes a facking Satanist.

So, one fleur de lis and adding some yellow? Sure, why not.

But seriously the flag is fine as is. Why does everything need change?

But this conversation is exactly what Swanson said he intended by the proposal.

"I'm just waiting to see where it goes. I'm really just trying to start a conversation about how we can make our regional symbols more inclusive and historically accurate," he said


Of course...just trying to start the conversation.



Also, if he's worried about historical accuracy and legislation, he should make sure they represent him as a ULL professor and not merely UL.

Cajuns are already a little familiar with people outside of their culture wanting to change it

Because if they didn’t say it, people would call them out for the arse licking retards they are for some of these suggestions while breaking down their stupidity piece by piece.

I called him, but he’s not in this semester. The gal that answered wouldn’t say if he was fired or on sabbatical. So this dipshite is sitting at home stirring shite up
