True.
“I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.”
-Isoroku Yamamoto
and yet the confederate constitution immediately legalizes slavery. There was not a wait for decades for it to be included.
Cool!

This is nothing but an American ISIS eradicating a culture that they hate. Once they strip the South of every Confederate memorial in every little southern town they’ll move on to bigger game.
They’ve already tipped their hand as to what that is, and their next cleansing campaign will be against every pre-Civil War President or historical figure that owned slaves or mistreated Indians or otherwise doesn’t live up to the commandments of 21st century political correctness.
They’re already doing this on the heels of their successful censorship of the battle flag. Activists in several cities are now waging campaigns against Andrew Jackson and even Thomas Jefferson.
Right now George Washington gets a pass because the haters realize that he’s a bridge too far. So his large slave holdings don’t count against him and he won’t be cleansed from American history. At least not yet. But once Americans get comfortable with and accept this soviet style elimination of un-persons his time will come too. And we can count on a certain little band at FR cheering the process on.

The British issued two emancipation proclamations during our Revolutionary War.
Dunmore’s Proclamation of 1775 and the Philipsburg Proclamation of 1779.
Had the British successfully defeated the Colonials slavery in America would have ended 90 years sooner.
So RginTn, let’s hear your explanation of which side should have won the Revolution.
The Brits and emancipation in 1779, or the Americans with slavery running for another 90 years?
Which is your choice?
IS destroys museums. Have museums put away the Confederate history??? Has the Sons of Confederate Veterans been shut down????
There are some things one can be proud of.
Sodomy is not one of those things.

This is my shocked face ====>
Not a surprise. Jeb! ought to have that cartoonist over for dinner. Lalo Alcarez has no more connection to America’s history than Nimrata Nikki Randhawa Haley. America’s past has little interest for them other than to badmouth it
Dig up Sherman and Grant.

The Confederate heritage is the topic. Stay on it.
I’ve learned a lot about Confederate History. Isn’t that what Confederate heritage supporters want????
That sort of censorship is already being pushed by your South hating comrades.
Now let’s see you answer my question in post 51. You have a habit of ducking that dilemma. It’s easy enough to figure out why.
The purge of *this* flag is just yet another false flag.
The Alinskyites are attaching the flag meme to white conservatives, in general and using it to “identify the target, polarize it, etc”.
*That* is what everyone needs to understand and rebel against.
It was not for nothing that that rino bimbo in SC fell for it, first.
Ft Sumter is a trigger, a meme, an ingrained historical memory.
The usurper is making the most of the power of the meme and otherwise bright people are falling for it, in the name of “Feel Good/White Guilt”.
The usurper has finally found the perfect, inflammatory “cause” to whip his useful idiots into a frothing frenzy.
After all, who could *possibly* argue that “slavery was bad”, even if the flag does *not* mean slavery to 99% of those who fly it?
It’s “proving a negative”, which is possibly the hardest argument to win.
And he knows that.
Just in time for the 2016 campaigns to begin.
Coincidence?
Hell no.
