“You’re kidding right? They fought so they could own human beings like cattle. Heroes? K.”
I;ve read your bullcrap before, hit and run troll libtard. I tell ya, we have more of these idiots posing as conservatives on FR.
They fought for this battle flag , they have a right to be represented by this flag.
History is written by the victors, even if it is politcally insensative, and NOT politically correct.
I am not a troll , but I believe that those who died for the purpose of this flag , have the right to present their ideology, regardless of who won .
In the South , they call it the " war of Northern aggression" despite their attack on the North at Fort Sumpter.
They were all Americans , who fought for what they thought was rightous... States rights vs. Secession from the Union .
If the North was so righteous , why did they wait so long to free the slaves under Lincoln and the Emacipation Proclamation, way late in the war , if you ask me .
in order to present a two front system for the Southerners to defend against (anticipating Blacks to rise up against their Southern Masters ) which didn't happen.
Let the dead be remembered for what they lived and died for.
"States Rights vs. secession from the Union !!"
Let the dead rest in Peace ... and don't contiue the war like it was yesterday... to many have already died !
I can't help but wonder how soon liberal fundamentalists will begin to demand the Washington monument be torn down. They have shown no reluctance so far to bulldoze Southern history and culture. And remember, many who want to ban Confederate flags also view the American flag as offensive. Every week or two another school principal forbids a student from flying an American flag on his truck, or wearing a T-shirt with an American flag.
Well, it’s clear who can have an intelligent non vitriolic conversation.
If you think the confederates were heroes you got a screw loose.
They could have been heroes, but they were unwilling to give up their free labor.
“All men are created equal.”
Unless when they are a slave, black or white. Right? Indentured or forced, right?
