"You don't walk through a Jewish neighborhood waving a swastika and say, 'I just want to do this because my great-uncle fought for the Nazis and I'm proud of the fact that he reached the rank of general,' " said Bledsoe, an Austin attorney.

Yankees had slaves, and the Yankee flag flies over almost every government installation in the country. Is it next on the hit list? I have never owned slaves or enslaved anybody, but I am proud of my heritage. Southern by birth, Texan by the grace of God.

"Yankees had slaves..."

That's a fact. And they were the first to enslave Africans. If memory serves, when the War Between The States broke out, it had only been about 15 years since the last New York slave had been freed.

Oops, better make that 25 years. Yes, I think the last slave in New York state was freed right around 1836 or so. They phased it out over a decade or so, just to go easy on those Yankee slave owners.

"The Yankee flag"? Are you talking about the flag of the United States of America? It sounds like it's on your "hit list."

Arabs are about the only people left who practice slavery worldwide. They are not universally prosecuted due to govt. ineptitude and fear of "religious" persecution. They should be deported from the US for each instance of involuntary servitude.
