"Take down the flag" sounds to me like a modern way of saying "Burn the witch" and this is the official Republican Establishment line being backed up by spin and the rewriting of history in "Conservative media".

I'm not for outlawing the Confederate Battle Flag by any means and certainly don't associate it with the swastika (G-d forbid!), but opposition to symbols of the Confederacy is not in and of itself left wing.

The Confederacy consisted entirely of members of the Democrat party, and the Republican party (originally a single issue coalition that united proto-leftist "free love" advocates with moralistic Bible-thumpers) is the party that defeated the Confederacy and won the Civil War, which was a war against the United States and the Old Flag.

And no, opposition to the Confederacy does not mean one rejects the "right of revolution" in all times and places . . . just that particular time and place.

Let’s let it go. Sometimes change is good.

The “confederate flag “ is not the prize, the prize is the US flag.

Once the liberals have everyone accepting of demonizing a long standing flag, they will immediate go after the US flag.

We have freepers here that think the Nikki did the right thing. Right, MinuteGal?

Once guns are successfully labeled as racist by the liberals, the second amendment will fall as fast as the Confederate flag did.
