More join chorus this time for repealing ‘Maryland, My Maryland,' the state’s pro-Confederate anthem
Baltimore Sun ^ | June 25, 2020 | MARY CAROLE MCCAULEY

Some local leaders predict that 2021 will be the year that Maryland rids itself of a Confederate-themed state song after nearly half a century of trying.

“Chances are exponentially better that this time we’ll get that song repealed,” said Kobi Little, president of the Baltimore City branch of the NAACP.

Let's see. Dean Martin's "winter" song, Kate Smith's song. This song. What's next? They are coming for anything and everything.

The only kind of ‘music’ some of these protesters will accept would be some sort of Rap ‘Music’, the stupider the better.

Well, we could call it ‘O Tannenbaum’.

Oh, Wait...

(Husband says we need a new theme: ‘O Liberal Bastion, My Liberal Bastion’...)

By the way, they are going after “My Old Kentucky Home...” That represents 2/3rds of the Triple Crown of horse racing.

RCA? Oh, I think they used to sell the Victrola record players with that pit bull dog on the posters.
Pepperidge Farms (& Joe Biden) remember!

Driving north out of Baltimore on I95, there is a small ranch house on the right side of highway.

It had flown the Confederate battle flag for at least the last 20 years.

I always smile when I see it. And I am a Yankee.

1. It reminds all that Maryland was a border state.

2. Some person or family has some balls.

3. It’s private property.

They can’t be serious!

The next thing they are going to tell us is that Mississippi is getting rid of their state flag!

Not all rap music. Antifa/BLM types don't like this one.

Eventually they will get rid of every state flag, and state song, and then the National Anthem and the US Flag.

Yes, RCA Victor records have to go because the dog is listening to "his master's voice."

A perfect song for the Left:

Doucheland, Doucheland,
Kneels to Everyone.
Fights to keep it all frigging gay,
Once it was nice but now it’s Doucheland,
‘Cause all the Douchebags got their way!

They should change it to “S#$^hole, My S#$^hole.” That’s what it mostly is under the democrat rule.

Maryland is actually a very ‘purple’ state. It’s just that the population concentration in the Baltimore-Washington corridor rules everything, and cuts-out the many Conservatives East and West.

When my family moved from Baltimore, MD to Appomattox, VA in 1961, I used to hear a lot of “yankeeeee” BS directed toward me and my brother. So I took the biggest offender down by the woods at school and beat the crap out of him. As I was working him over, I told him Maryland was full of southern sympathizers. We became best friends.
