I want the naacp to STFU!
Not only No, but Hell No!
Now there goin too far. Start chiseling, F’n dare ya!
Not meaningless at all. The damn yankees have destroyed their own economies, now they come South to find work and lower cost of living.
Once our borders are secure...They can pledge allegiance...or get back on up North.
Would you like FR to kick all of us filthy liberal yankees out too.
You have to know who your allies are.
Yeah, well, water in Hell wants ice people.
More likely is an Amish rent-a-mob overrunning the summit & then dumping paint over the rock face & sculpture.
They might run into trouble if enough Johnny Rebs are in the area.
Stone Mountain needs to be under 24/7 guard now. Not just Park Service or whatever, but an outer ring of patriots as well.
Revisionist history parrot.

Are you a conservative? Do you love your country? Are you tired of the liberals ruining your country / state?
If so, I do not consider you my advesary. Sorry for the broad brush stroke.
That's why Orwell wrote it. Ordinary people weren't about to get their minds around Communism and totalitarian "thinking", so he had to do something to say, "Look, these people have dialed you up, and they're coming for you."
He saw the Communists in all their sleazy glory when they took over -- a stateless "coup d'etat" -- the Spanish Republican movement on Stalin's orders, and shot their French labor-union allies on trumped-up, bogus "charges". They came for Orwell and other foreign-national allies, too, and Orwell had to run for it, literally running across rooftops.
Doublethink is so plusgood. I bellyfeel doublethink.
Bunch of hypocrite fools.
Exactly. That is what communists do.
Actually, no. That was their propaganda back in the 30's, 40's, and 50's. Frankfurt School prolefeed, straight from the gristmill: Destroy the corrupt old society, "organs", government, everything, 100% and then build afresh with virginal materials and simon-pure Marxist-Leninist goodwill.
Hogwash.
It was never, ever what Communists have done. In 1918, the night before they stormed the Winter Palace, the big-hat Communists of the Russian Communist Party spent all night sleeplessly, not dressing their troops or inspecting their installations and pickets -- no, no, nothing like that.
They spent all night arguing among themselves about how to rename all the government ministries, in order to insulate them from public inspection and from the effects of 20 years of Communist propaganda and demagoguery. They needed the People to think differently about the government ministries once they were under Communist control, and not measure them by the same yardsticks the Communists had used for years and years, when they were levelling scathing criticism at those selfsame ministries.
It'd be a worthwhile subject for delicate investigation, to see whether any Russian government petits fonctionnaires actually lost their jobs when the Communists took over. My own guess is, not many. After all, you need people who know what they are doing.
Think, too, about how much the government ministries changed when Communists took over Saigon (think mailmen in Chu Lai and Cholon lost their jobs?) and Cuba. Other than the loss of wealthy Cubanos to the Florida economy, life continued pretty much as before, except for the 3-hour interruptions when Fidel made a speech. The economy gradually declined, but nothing good happened that the Communists could take credit for.
The answer, then, is that except in Cambodia, where the Maoists killed everyone who could read, Communists have never inaugurated wholesale changes in government and society (except in agriculture, with their communal farms), but instead have taken them over as going concerns and run them conservatively.
I can't decide.
Nope! Lets have Texas [which joined the United States as a result of a treaty, and, thereby, the constitutional limitation of the Supreme Court decision in Texas v. White, 74 U.S. 700 (1869) in which the court held that the Constitution did not permit states to unilaterally secede from the United States was corrupt in that Texas was admitted to the Union by President Tyler's treaty of annexation in April 1844- and Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 provides that [The President] shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur...
Accordingly, let's go back to the Republic of Texas, as it was on the map of 1836:
Either that, or give them the opportunity to find out first hand....
When the flag comes down, the N-word is back on.
