I know realize it is The Southern US/Trump vs The World with a Hand full of Baws spread out over the Country.
Our ranks are growing in some of the strangest places... like Los Angeles.
The Confederate Flag is starting to become an all-purpose symbol of rebellion against the madness of Clownworld. You're seeing it all over the country. You had people bitching last year at seeing it in places as far flung as New Jersey (at beachwear shops) and Washington State (a reporter was crying about seeing them on big rigs carrying timber).

The BLM wave is cresting; though there are lot of Prog Deep Staters left in Trump's Adm., they - like BLM - are losing ground. Trump's MO has been very slow to push back (think Meuller/Muh Russia, or Ukraine and even Obama/SpyGate/Coup).
He's working from the bottom up - note all the Judges appointed - and shooting to win re-election. He'd prefer that passive-aggressive MO to all out confrontation and violence. Deal maker.
Of course, the ultimate 'policy' will be established by the smartest,most dedicated and visionary, disciplined, sacrificial and most aggressive Group of individuals in the populous; and they are the ones that elected and still support Trump and his somewhat frustrating MO. Of course, if Trump fails, that 'Group' holds the failsafe button. They'll deal with Fascist Totalitarianism today just like they did in the last Century...once all other peaceful options are exhausted. That Group is prosperous, and are loathe to abandon Rule of, suspend prosperity, and take the gloves off; which will be exactly what is required to beat back the Totalitarian threat. The "John Mark Speaks" Thread the other day, pretty much defines that Group, and the likely outcome if Trump's MO don't cut it.
Muh Confederate Flag...is a 'shiny object'...in the long game; though it is a valid symptom of the real threat.
All aside, I would love to hear Trump surprise and directly ask Biden (on the Debate Stage)...'do the Rights of the Citizenry come from God...or the electoral will of the popular Majority? Joe would get that fuzzy look in his eyes; deer in the headlight version.

I don't get the knee-jerk patriotism of Southerners on this board.
Well said. A big part of that hatred stems from the South’s religious devotion and identification with traditional Christian values.
I am the son of a Korean War Army veteran and grandson of a WWII Marine Corps veteran. I served as an enlisted Marine myself.
Yet I will do everything in my power to dissuade my son from joining the U.S. Military. I truly believe the entities that control all the true levers of power in our nation’s government are aligned with the forces of unfathomable evil.

Yes. Apparently as long as it promotes anti-Christian ideologies.
Remember the dim-wit Communist West Point grad? His mentor was Dr. Rasheed Hosein, a radical Muslim.

I fought in three wars for the empire in accordance with the deal we Southerners made in 1877. They have reneged on their end of the bargain, so I say we renege on ours and stop serving in the military. Let's see how the empire fares without us, since they hate us so much.

Are you a Southerner first or an American first? Service to Country means the whole country, good parts and bad parts.
We Southerners have told the rest of the country for years that it would not end with Confederate symbols and were ignored, laughed at, or denigrated. Most of the rest of the country said nothing or cheered it on. Southerner first and the rest of the country can get fricked.

I served with a Marine that had a tattoo of an eagle, globe and anchor with a crossed American flag and Confederate Battle Flag above it. Below that, the words “American by Birth, Marine by Choice, And Southern by the Grace of God” were emblazoned in cursive script.
Though country as a Southern-fried corn-fritter, this Marine was by no means a racist: he was one of the wittiest, bravest and most honorable individuals I ever knew. How sad and ridiculous that a man of his caliber would be excluded from serving in today’s Marine Corps because of that tattoo.
God bless you Gillis, wherever you are. You were one of the good ones.

I'm an American. The federal government can go frick itself. It's far too powerful and it has gone unchecked for far too long.
America is quickly reaching a point where we fight for individual rights and a smaller government or we surrender our freedom and eat ourselves alive as so many have before us.
People seem in just the last 50 years to have absolutely forgotten how unique and amazing this country is and how quickly it can all go away.
Our education system has failed a generation by design and we are too chicken shite as a culture and a country to smack these petulant children in the mouth.

What will happen to soldiers/sailors/airmen/Marines that have Confederate tattoos?

See now this shite bugs me for one reason.
Trump is the CiC. It's pretty obvious that none of this stuff, that the military leadership KNOWS goes against his positions, ever comes across his desk for approval.
Instead, they are doing this to effectively undermine him.
There is no other way to look at it.
