Civil rights groups on Thursday put city and business leaders here on a 30-day notice that unless they meet a list of demands – including a ban on the display of the Confederate flag at taxpayer-funded events – they will be subjected to protests and boycotts.

Amen...please read my post (#19)

Tolerance.

And yet they expect us to put up with Whoopi Goldberg.

She is painful to all the senses....she sounds bad, looks terrible, the very process that got her the nickname "Whoopi" (named after the cushion) means she must not smell all that nice either. The remaining sense is "touch" an nobody in their right mind would ever want to go there."

* Except the bloomin' liberal idiot, Ted Danson and he couldn't take it for long.

The NAACP has too much time on their hands. If certain folks in my neck of the woods can fly the Puerto Rican/Dominican/Polish/Greek flags to give them a sense of "pride"*, than confederados deserve the same respect, no matter how cheesy it can seem at times.

*Ever notice that Chinese, Koreans, and East Indians never seem to fly their flags?

The communist naacp needs to monkeyup and shut the F up about the Confederate Flag. Just like the sun, moon and stars it will be around for a long time, history is infinite.

Whites have rights as well and we intend to keep them.

Bring it on you whiney little creeps!

I fly the Confederate Flag. You can come and try to take it down if you want, but are you willing to die for it? I am!

Hey Chris, If you haven’t already, read Michael Grissom’s book Southern By The Grace Of God. Great companion piece to The South Was Right...

I think the Florida chapter of the NAACP should ask their brothers in South Carolina how well their boycott is going…

And I've no doubt that any South Florida boycott will be just as successful.

[SharpRightTurn]

I’d rather ban the NAALCP.

[nanetteclaret]

Please add me to your list. Thanks.

I’m looking forward to their big boycott of the NASCAR race in Homestead in November - you know, a boycott of a race they weren’t planning to attend in the first place.

If I were going, I’d make myself a shirt that incorporated a Confederate flag just to tick ‘em off. Since I’m originally from North Carolina, I figure I’m entitled.

Shhh. At some point the NAACP might realize that being the subject of a boycott is actually a marketing plus.

[Little Ray]

Proper response: PLEASE boycott and protest our events. We couldn’t BUY better advertising.

Oops. I didn't mean to spill the beans...

GREAT! Old Dixie is now flying proudly on my desktop.

Tolerance.

BS. Blackmail. And it's illegal. I say call their bluff.

Yeah, their boycott of the race should free up maybe two or three extra tickets.

He’s probable not a memeber for much longer...if you don’t spout the party line you are persona non grata PDQ, as I found out.
