Change ‘North’ to ‘South’ and you’ve just described yourself down to a tee.

I have lived in the north and the south. You are wrong about that. The northern people are much more bigoted against the south and you are bound to know that. The phrase "southern hospitality" wasn't just picked out of the air.

Love your post!

"why would you say such things?" ====> because, like SO MANY southerners, i've come to the following conclusions:

1. that the DAMNyankee HATERS will continue to push for eroding & eventually ending our LIBERTY as CITIZENS,

2. that we need to get away from the DAMNyankee HATERS & their STALINIST/socialist "handlers",

3. that the LIBS will push for evermore wasteful,needLESS "social programs",

4. that the LEFTISTS will continue to press for ever-increasing TAXES,

5. that the LIBs (primarily from the north & LEFT coast) will continue to press for more "abortion on demand" & "publicly funded abortions",

6.that FREEDOM to be "us" is a GOOD thing,

7. that the LIBs will NEVER leave us alone & get OUT of our schools, churches & personal lives.

thus there is NO OTHER reasonable/HONORABLE choice than separation from the north & the LEFT coast "nut-jobs".

frankly, as a former (now retired) US military officer, this was NOT an easy or frivolous decision on my part, but rather a "matter of HONOR".

PITY that you're too DISHONEST/BIGOTED/IGNORANT/hate-FILLED to see that we southerners have a VALID point of view, that you should RESPECT even if you disagree with us.

btw, "Mr LOUD-mouth TROLL", did YOU serve in the armed forces??? ever served in combat??? ever got wounded??? (my guess is: NO, to all 3.)

don't pay N-S any mind. he KNOWS better;he CHOOSES not to DO better.

N-S is The DAMNyankee Minister of PROPAGANDA.

DECEIT is as natural to him (and the members of "the DAMNyankee coven of fools, lunatics, HATERS, revisionists, BIGOTS & nitwits", which he leads) as breathing.

LIES, "twisting words" & 1/2-truths are his "stock in trade".

was President Eisenhower "appealing to the Southern racists in HIS party", too???

laughing AT you IGNORANT/phony-baloney opinion.

peddle your NONSENSE & BIGOTRY against our BATTLEFLAG elsewhere. i'm NOY buying any.

[stand watie]

have you finally "LOST IT", N-S??? (every post you've made lately is seemingly LESS intelligent & LESS worthy of reading.)

are you, perchance,running for President of "The STUPID Club", which is a HATE-filled/DUMB-bunny subset of "The DAMNyankee Coven of lunatics, REVISIONISTS, liars, HATERS,"pitiful cases", BIGOTS & nitwits"???

[stand watie]

fwiw, you might read my grandfather's words in #177.

UNlike you, he was a WISE man.

laughing AT you, TROLL. (you're a BAD joke & "a source of mirth" to most FReepers, who bother to read your BILGE, HATE-filled lies & arrogant/ignorant NONSENSE.)

free dixie,sw

[stand watie]

fyi, i'm the ONLY one here,who now responds to your BIGOTED, ignorant, ARROGANTLY DISHONEST,SILLY posts. that alone should tell you that you are "a BAD JOKE" to the vast majority of the FReepers on these threads.

as i've repeatedly said, "you RUINED yourself, TROLL". NOBODY believes anything you say any more. rather, they laugh AT you, as i do.

fwiw, i post TO you solely because i enjoy ABUSING & RIDICULING bigots & TROLLS (you seem to be BOTH!).

Hey imbecile...I didn’t respond to your first idiotic response, so why do you think I’d respond to the next 10?

Your utter stupidity indicates your origin south of the Mason-Dixon.

[cynwoody]

Put up by Ernest Hollings in response to calls from the Feds to integrate.

Anyone who doesn't believe that the Battle Flag's placement in SC is NOT race related must be smoking some of Willie Nelson's stash

You forgot the D after Fritzie's name.

[Between the Lines]

Well, 63% of you are.

If you took a poll of all the states, I would doubt that even one would support gay marriage in Massachusetts. Even in Massachusetts 52% oppose it.

Maybe the NCAA should boycott Massachusetts for having an unpopular law too.

[Between the Lines]

North & South would probably not be as hot an issue today had it not been for the Reconstruction Period after the war when land and property were seized from many Southern families and most Southerners had their right to vote suspended. It was these acts that forced the bitterness and polarization of the races that persists to present times.

Great post! It is kind of an irony that we have the Radical Republicans to thank for this North vs South issue.

[kcvl]

Because of the NCAA boycott of S.C.

I guess it's time for our family to visit S.C. for a couple of weeks!

[BillyBoy]

>> You spew your hatred of Northerners and in the same sentence call northerners "hate-filled". Kettle meet pot. <<

So what else is new? You should see him in the Georgia threads. He ranted and raved ad infinitum that "Sonny lied" to get elected but he had no problem with Sonny Perdue's neoconfederate GOP-hating primary opponent lying about being a "Republican" in order to get on the ballot easier.

[Between the Lines]

We’ll be damned if we let you raise the emblem of rebellion and slavery again.

Ain't nobody let us, but it is still there, so you must be damned.

The flag that flies over the state of South Carolina today is the same flag that was designed for an independent South Carolina following it's secession from the US. Why doesn't this flag bother anyone?

[Between the Lines]

Looking at that map, I would be willing to bet that everyone that voted against South Carolina flying a Confederate flag is also pro-multiculturalism.

Fly the Mexican flag, the gay flag, the black pride flag or any flag you want, just don't fly the Confederate flag.

Multiculturalism is a wonderful thing in their minds, except for Southern culture.

[BnBlFlag]

“...We’ll be damned if we let you raise the emblem of rebellion and slavery again”.
Oh? And just how do you propose gittn’ that done.
BTW, the CBF is not the emblem of rebellion nor slavery. It’s a battle flag of the Army. Also, there was no rebellion. There was secession not “rebellion”.

[Lee'sGhost]

Can’t argue with that. Nice to know that Lincoln advocated rebellion even as he sought to crush it. Can’t understand why some think he was the greatest. Same mentality that thinks Clinton was good, I guess.

[Lee'sGhost]

“A more accurate analogy would be if the lawnmower, which happened to be stored in your shed, was jointly owned by the entire neighborhood.”

No. A more accurate analogy would if I provided the lawnmower for the neighborhood to use. When the neighbors starting spitting on me and my kids for some strange reason I wanted to discontinue that arrangement.

“Common sense says that jointly owned property does not become yours merely because you want it.”

Correct, but that conclusion is based on your false analogy so I, as usual, am correct and you are wrong.

[SWEETSUNNYSOUTH]

That Republican wizzard guy needs to visit here a while and see what southerners are really like. Southern hospitality is extended to everyone, UNTIL being insulted.
Then be ready for one helluva fight!
