I didn't say you read them. I said you burned them.
Or, in your case, maybe suppression is a more appropriate term.
Was Bill Clinton a Yankee? What about Jimmah Carter?
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. As far as the emancipation of the slaves went, the South embraced it better than the North. The North feared an influx of cheap former slave labor from the South and the labor unions fought it in an attempt to save the jobs of their members. The Battle Flag never became a symbol of racism until the civil rights movement of the 50s and 60s, where it was trotted out with every confrontation. It’s too bad that it became a symbol of something that it was never meant to represent.
to ALL: NOBODY expects The Minister of DAMNyankee PROPAGANDA (N-S) to post TRUTHFUL information about the HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of DAMNyankee ATROCITIES committed against innocent/unarmed civilians & CSA prisoners of war, by the FILTH IN BLUE!
it is the NATURE of a DAMNyankee BIGOT to LIE, just as it is the NATURE of a SERPENT to SLITHER.

"TAXATUECETTS", isn't it???
we southerners just want the DAMNyankee HATERS/bigots/"useful idiots" from the NORTH to stay HOME,"shut their mouths" & slither back under their respective logs.
in the case of the battleflag at the Statehouse, it is NOBODY else's business except that of the citizens of SC.most especially, it is NOT the business of the NCAA whacks and/or ESPN.

I thought you didn’t care what I think. Why are you responding to me?
"poor jimmy" was NEVER very bright. (Miss Lillian was CORRECT. BILLY was the smarter of the TWO!)
now tell us about the DAMNyankee REVISIONIST, HATERS & LEFTISTS that YOU state has "blessed the nation" with.
free dixie,sw
stand, where have you been? i haven’t heard from you in a long time.
i’ve forgotten, what turd world country are you living in yet???
If you do not know where you have been, then you have no idea where to go in the future.
You sure are staying around on a thread that you say no one should care about!
You are an F’in idiot. The flag is on the statehouse grounds to honor the soldiers who fought and lost their lives in the Civil War.
On the other hand it would be sooo much easier to make this stuff up as I went along, as you do.
I like the way you talk.
What does CVBT mean?
Given the source, it can’t mean anything good.
I do read them. Even big, thick ones with a lot of pages and no pictures. You should try it some time.
Or, in your case, maybe suppression is a more appropriate term.
Why suppress anything. The Northern cause stands on its own merit, just like the Southern cause falls on its own merit.
Central Virginia Battlefields Trust .
Given the source, it can’t mean anything good.
That would be up to you.
Stupid Union jackass.
To deny the right to have a confederate flag in a confederate state is pure stupidity.
Right, so Ann Richards? Give this crap a rest.
Most people here, myself included think that the stars and bars is ok to fly regardless of the fact I’m a ‘damn yankee’. But for silly pride to cause you to insult those of us in the northern states while you try to deny your own slew of liberal politicians is just plain silly.
Lets not forget TN (south) brought us Al Gore!
