"They are trying to turn this into South Africa, and folks, we’re letting them do it."

Yes, and they will be behind high walls with armed security forces while the rest of population will be in the big boiling pot that has become the USA. Watch out when they start stockpiling old tires.

Saw this earlier on a lefty forum. Doesn’t it make sense to cut us loose so they can have the socialist utopia they so richly deserve?

THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
by Rudyard Kipling

It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.

They were not easily moved,
They were icy — willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.

Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.

:-) You don’t need to thank me. That’s exactly what they’re trying to do.

"Ok, so now the offensive flag is gone, but it won’t change a damn thing."

Gone? Not even close. The fact is.... there will be more Confederate Battle Flags flyin' now than ever before. I'm already seeing it here in Florida.

Molon Labe!

Republicans are just despicable. They fold like a cheap suit every time. Once considered a shoo-in for 2016, they will be in ruins by their own cowardice.

I am completely and totally sick and tired of hearing about the confederate flag from the politically correct crowd. The flag is part of U.S. history, leave it alone, we have far bigger problems that that old flag. What other part(s) of our history will those idiots go after and want removed?

Its’ HISTORY you ass hats, get over it and YOURSELF.

Why didn’t this embarrassing disgrace of a Southern female simply launch herself from the podium onto her black friends and offer to perform certain services for them?

I can’t say any more about the imbecile or I’ll be banned.

I am am not from SC, but any one that would fold that easy deserves to be bounced.

After 50 years? Or after 150 years? Even if it's only after 15 or 20 years, things have been building up to this for a while.

in my book “redneck” is a good ol boy who enjoys life and gets along well with his black neighbors. There are probably some on this site he equate the word with being racist. I don’t.

She might want to, for consistency sake also move to change the stars and stripes.

The American stars and stripes FLEW OVER ships transporting slaves from Africa LONGER than the existence of the Confederate Flag.

Yes, and I would love to ask her about that.

Not to mention the fact that the idiot who murdered the black churchgoers also took pics of himself with the American flag.

You know what I mean. The flag is not the issue.
But I am with you. I went through my old stuff and found my old rebel flags and they are flying in defiance.
