There was also an Elk Grove Unified School District logo. It was a district van.

If it was a pride flag all would be good.

I wonder how many BLM shirts and flags are displayed in the school system.

You know, I have a childhood toy sitting on my desk at work, it’s the Dukes of Hazzard General Lee. It has three buttons on the trunk, one makes vroom, vroom engine sounds, one goes “yeeeeehaaaaaw”, (played only on Fridays) and one plays the signature Dixie horn.

I’m guessing I should bring that home, lest someone become triggered.

And I’m no fan of The Confederacy. But I know where this all leads.

As a kid, I had a Confederate Flag Lynyrd Skynyrd belt buckle I wore to school.

I had better burn any and all photos of me with it on before the mob finds out

“When I looked down and saw the logo, the blood was boiling, and I could just think to myself like, ‘How dare you do something like this?’” Watkins said. “This past month of June represented the month of freedom of the slaves, and for you to act like it’s okay for you to ride around with that little small flag in your vehicle.”

I think somebody needs to turn their sensitivity meter down.

I thought about flying a Confederate Pride flag (rainbow Confederate flag) just to trigger everybody up in this motherflagger.

Keep the confederates.

Ditch the progressives and the Woke.

<< Watkins grew up in the South and remembers all too well the negative feelings that flag stirs up. >>

Plenty of flags stir up negative feelings in progs, including the Israeli flag, the Gadsden flag, and Old Glory itself, especially the Betsy Ross version. Yep, they’re next.

Its getting eai6er and easier to pull the loons out of the gen pop. Who taught these people to be butt hurt and its ok to be butt hurt? Kwhen I was butt hurt my mom used to say “ stop crying before I give you something to cry about”. Maybe montys mom should tell him the same thing.
