Yeah right, and next you'll claim that the poll tax was just a means of raising revenue?

That's why you flag obsessors have zero credibility.

I am not a "flag obsessor." I deny the allegation and confound the alligator.

Poll taxes have not been a subject of this conversation until you just now brought it up in an attempt to deflect attention from your inability to find any 1956-era admissions that defiance was the reason for the 1956 GSF and your discomfort with applying the same rules to the Stars & Stripes as you apply to the GSF.

Intellectual consistency is a bitch. Many people never trouble themselves with it.

When the NAACP and President Hillary declare the US Flag offensive, what logical argument will you have to defend it? The very creation of the flag itself was an act of defiance against our lawful King. And half of those old, dead, white dudes were slave owners.

Is slavery not more heinous than segregation?
