She should have retained a proper attorney. Damages claimed were low by at least a factor of 100.

Point being, of course, that the PC sods won't ever back off until the game becomes too expensive for them to play.

And, btw, having seen the photo, that gown has no more to do with the Confederate battle flag than my unwashed shorts have to do with the Black Watch tartan.

That's a gorgeous gown and she looks great in it! Kudos to her for the design.

[gr8eman]

I must say, it is the best gown I have ever seen...and I'm a Yankee!

[cyborg]

Where are the liberals who whine about self expression now?

[DirtyHarryY2K]

If you've ever worn a Confederate flag as a prom dress... you might be a Redneck..

[JoJo Gunn]

You'd better believe I get offended by the sight of a UN flag. So how come the Politically Correct bedwetters don't speak for me?

[JohnHuang2]

Good question

Motion seconded ;-)

"I wanted to show part of my Southern heritage," she said. The Herald-Leader reports she had worked on the dress' design for four years and that she said it had always been her dream to wear a Confederate-themed dress to her senior prom.

The Confederate Flag....trash

A crucifix in urine.....art.

Go figure!

[JohnHuang2]

That's it in a nutshell.

The girl designs and makes her own prom dress, honors her heritage in doing it, it's beautiful and she looks great in it. While at proms around the country other girls are on drugs and having babies in the bathroom. So this girl gets harrassed. I must be getting old.

[JohnHuang2]

Well said.

...and murdering them in the bathroom, and going back to the dancefloor (never forget Michelle Drexler)

"I wanted to show part of my Southern heritage," she said."

American heritages are officially banned, especially our Christian one.

Now listen up all you good citizens of America; there's nothing for us to be proud of regarding the history of our Southern states, as the Confederate flag was created to stand for bigotry. And our ancestors and the Founding Fathers never wanted the Christian faith to have any influence in government affairs, because religion is dangerous and needs to expressed in the confines of a church building or in the seclusion of your home. Previous laws against sodomy and abortion were nothing more than blatant bigotry against "gays" and women by chauvenist white males, so don't you dare speak out against either lest you be smitten by a law suit or a hate crime charge for trying to exhume a burried Christian heritage.

BTW, that young lady looked lovely in her hand made gown. But now I'm wondering when the pc police will force the New York YANKEES to change their name because it 'offends' people by forcing them to recall the Civil War?

[TheCrusader]

"Where are the liberals who whine about self expression now?"

The liberals wouldn't have troubled this young lady about her 'confederate' gown if she had shown up arm-in-arm with her lesbian lover, or if the dress had represented the Communist symbol of hammer & sickle. THAT'S the type of 'self expression' the vermin liberals fight for.

[Petronski]

Much better curves than the old General Lee!

[KneelBeforeZod]

good thing she isn't a liberal or people would be making fun of those ham hock arms

[Poundstone]

I have nothing against the Confederate flag, but boy is she fat. I mean, FAT.

[Cheapskate]

Wow ,we have a good lookin southern girl who has the brass to wear that dress and buck tradition

My question is;With her around, Who the hell needs a prom?
