This will all go down the memory hole soon, since it is summer.

I think the exact quote was that he ripped open her bodice and fumbled between her breasts. I suppose it could have been a robbery. But since Frank convened the KKK the next night. I took as something more personal than robbery.

the Soviet flag is still an official symbol of the Russian Federation. They fly it every May 7th to commemorate the end of WWII. It also serves as the unit flag of many regiments of the Russian Armed Forces, and as a component of a few Russian oblast’s flags. That is the equivalent of the Germans flying a Nazi flag once a year for a celebration.

We need to seize the momentum.

Get them to admit they’re just pandering. Try to get them to ban the commie merchandise, the fag flag, etc.

And when they won’t have them explain their hypocrisy. And make sure they know you’re done with them and you’ll be making sure you will convince as many other folks to be done with them.

Either unban the confederate flag crap, or start banning all the other “offensive” stuff they are making money on.

I don’t care wether the confederate flag is sold on ebay or not, but if ebay wants to start censoring what they think is politically correct then I can censor them as well.

No more ebay is just fine with me.

The Confederate flag does represent the very worst in US history. People who wanted the right to own other people so badly that they committed treason to do it.

Having said that, I don't think we should ban it. Freedom of speech still applies, and how else are we going to identify the idiots who are actually racist, or are too dumb to understand its history?

The Commies are the ones pushing this and they are pushing it as if every average southern white owned slaves. It is probably more truthful to state that the slave owners were not rednecks as portrayed by the left but more likely academics and elites who attended the ballets and operas.

I just checked Amazon and you can buy a Black Power flag there. How is that not racist?

It’s because whites are obligated and blacks are entitled.

God stuff right there...

First, I made plenty...

Second, I we got away from credit cards years ago...We are a cash only operation...

Third, EBT cards are the new slavery, and I will have nothing to do with it...

Forth, too bad people don’t see this trend shown in that bar chart...Seems to me a lot of politicians on both sides of the aisle need to be fired for creating this condition...
