This had to be the idea of the person that dreamed-up “NEW COKE”.
Both went over like a Blue F—t in a elevator.

snip-”May I tell you the Confederate Flag is indeed a Christian flag because it has the cross of Saint Andrew, who was a Christian martyr, and the letter ‘X’ has always been used to represent Christ, and to attack the flag is to deny the sovereignty, the majesty, and the might of the Lord Jesus Christ and his divine role in our history, culture, and life.”

Two sides of the same coin, you and I know that on the field flags indicate troop positions...

Think upward, the People use the flag to be “on the field” with us in Spirit, Love and Support...

It is a Promise, A Covenant of Purpose that moves us far beyond inconvenience to a true test of the soul and what really has meaning...

To a Christian the Cross says it all...

They chose a religious figure as the emblem purposely, it was not a booze induced yeah lets do it sparking a “riot” (had to throw in current events, Baltimore and the like)

BLM is in truth a non veiled attempt to create a “race within the Nation” with separate status and recognition like Native Americans, as a start.

God Bless

Nothing wrong with the PRESENT flag ... The one that STILL should be flying over Confedreate cemeteries and memorials.

No. I don’t know whose flag that is, but it isn’t ours. No to the black saltire on the white ground, also.

“V” is for Vomit. What does it represent? What meaning for the South is there in that symbolism??

We need to create a flag for NPR.

How about one person listening to a radio. Because that is pretty much their listener base.

Succession was the act of rebellion.

So pretty much were the events of 1775. Your point?

For one thing, the exiled flag contained the Scottish saltire (a diagonal cross from corner to corner) that acknowledged the ethnic heritage and predominant culture of the historic south.

If anything, the new flag should show gray stripes being stomped upon by a big blue boot.

That looks like a Political Correct Confederate Flag designed by Brian France & Dale Earnhardt Jr
