The Civil War Is Over: Let The Battle Flag Be

Over the past several months, the NAACP has launched a campaign against the Confederate Battle Flag by protesting its presence at the South Carolina statehouse. Governor Nikki Haley did not respond to the demands of the NAACP to remove it. In a similar matter, black protesters have called for the removal of the Battle Flag from a Georgian cemetery that happens to have interred the bones of Confederate soldiers. And now, most recently, Republican presidential candidate Governor Rick Perry of Texas has become the newest target of the NAACP over whether the Battle Flag should appear on license plates. In the end, Perry decided against the idea.

His name is on the roll of the 69th NY and can be found when I visit the 69th Regt. Armory at 26th and Park Ave South. (Gentle when stroked. Fierce when provoked.) Thank you

“I don’t drink anymore pal, haven’t in 21 years.”

In other words, you are a drunk, you just white knuckle it now.

[CodeToad]

“The patriots who fought the Crown didn’t consider themselves “British’’. “

Yes, they did. Where did you get your education, a liberal think tank?

[jmacusa]

Slavery has been ended in the North long before 1861.

[jmacusa]

You moron, if the had consider themselves ‘’subjects of the crown, there never would have been a revolution. And I’m not white-knuckling anything. You ought to stick your nose back in the bottle, it’s probably the only thing you do right.

[jmacusa]

You really don’t like the Stars and Stripes va, you really ought to pick a better flag in a better country.

[jmacusa]

Hey ‘’Angel’’, hows it going, how the head today? Always the ‘’nip ‘o’ the hair ‘o’ the dog’’ barks real loud the next day. Hangovers are a b!tch. Stay away from coffee , it’ll just make it worse. Take some aspirin, it’ll help. I’d tell you to have another drink but I wouldn’t want to get you into any bad habits..... (just kiddin’)

I remember him. He was a real jerk.

LOL! Now dearie, do you really think by calling yourself a jerk that anyone is going to buy it? You and NS are identical twins, what is called a retread. How could you remember NS since he was zotted(all 3 times) long before you joined FR and his views on everything were exactly the same as yours. You both live in Kansas, like the same teams, he is your soulmate..... he is YOU.

So...are you saying that Code Toad is some sort of fool who doesn't know what he's talking about? Link

I guess he just doesn't have your keen insight and bulldog like ability for sniffing out people.

[mojitojoe]

I DO NOT disagree with Code toad and he or she could be right. Maybe you are posting under several screen names. When I have time I will check out the name he thinks you are posting under. I don’t know if he has my ability for sniffing out trolls. One has to know how to do it quickly unless you want to waste all day on it. It’s not that hard and some have more troll sniffing tools than others.

Or maybe it takes one to know one...

One of those survivors, Ira Hayes, left much of his soul there on Iwo. He always felt ashamed and embarrassed by the adulation and honors heaped upon him, stating many times that the real heroes of Iwo Jima never came home.

As an interesting aside on Ira Hayes; there is some speculation that he might have been murdered. The night before he died, he won a sizable amount of money in a poker game, but when his body was found the next morning, his pockets were empty. The tribal police had little or no forensics training and they didn't request an autopsy, so his cause of death was officially listed as alcohol poisoning and exposure.

[Stonewall Jackson]

Two of my ancestors were behind the stone wall at the top of Marye's Heights. Privates Isaac and Brennan Treadwell of Company F, 16th Georgia Infantry were part of Cobb's Brigade. A sizable number of men in this brigade were Irish and were horrified to find themselves facing their fellow Irishmen, as was so ably depicted in the movie Gods and Generals.

[Stonewall Jackson]

I believe he is talking about the border states; Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware, where slavery was not abolished by the Emancipation Proclamation.

When I have time I will check out the name he thinks you are posting under. I don’t know if he has my ability for sniffing out trolls.

I wouldn't pat yourself on the back too hard over your troll-sniffing ability. When you get to define for yourself what a troll is then it's a snap to be able to sniff them out.

[mojitojoe]

Still upset that your boy got zotted aren’t you? Oh well, too bad. He’s back, as sojoco until he gets zotted again. So you 2 can play kissy face for a while.

[mojitojoe]

LOL! You zot was inevitable and it was particularly sweet that it came from JR himself when you decided to take him on over your pro-homo crap. Did you see how many people on FR celebrated? How despised you had been for almost 9 years? They were still celebrating a month later. So keep on posting as SOJOCO and it delights me that you have to watch every word you say for fear of being zotted again. Skating on thin ice.

[mojitojoe]

Jim R defines what a troll is, and he decided non-sequitur, aka drennanwhyte aka kstater were trolls and as you know, you got the zot with those names. ..... now aka sojocow just a matter of time.

[mojitojoe]

True to form, NS bumping those War of Northern Aggression threads as usual. Some things never change.
