i'm sure there were at least 5 native Georgians who really disliked the flag. at least 5.

TRUTH is, NOBODY but the IGNORANT leftists of the most extreme liberal fringe of the DIMocRAT party were offended;those fools are always looking for something to be offended about. do i care if the left is offended or thinks we southrons are "insensitive" to their views? ABSOLUTELY NOT!

and yes, i've lived in GA, Columbus to be exact. i left because i went back to grad school to finish another degree in LA.

So, I guess that leftist scalawag Saxby Chambliss is one of the 5. And that other extreme leftist scalawag Zell Miller is one of the five. Hell, once we get past daddy and daugher McKinney and John Lewis, we are out of slots on your team.

Just more unsupportable extreme hyperbole from your end. It is funny, with all your ranting about "outside agitators," you could almost be mistaken for a Southern official circa 1961. But it seems that none of the most outspoken people on the flag issue are Yankees - why is that? They're just smart enough to find front people for their views?

Doesn't seem to bother them when WE are offended by their incessant attacks on us though, does it? Which proves it isn't about that at all. In PC speak, freedom of speech is freedom for SOME to say and do whatever they d*mn well please and for the rest of us it means the freedom to shut up and put up with it.
