Surely they can ban this: 
This whole effort is designed to split the south, which has become solidly Republican.
The Mexicans slaughtered everyone in the Alamo, should that flag go? The US flag flew over Ft Hood, Columbine and Newtown, should it go too? This mob mentality deliberately being used by the hard core left and sucking in spineless, idiot Republicans is their last best chance to destroy every Southern emblem they hate. Make no mistake about it, this is an anti Southern crusade. No such effort was made after any other large scale massacre in this country but the South has always been held to a different standard.
““If it was purely a flag representing the region, albeit one involved with a stupid war, I would be proud of it,” said Curtis Wilkie, a journalist and historian of the South who teaches at the University of Mississippi. “Yet it’s become something entirely different and therefore objectionable.” “
That is the thing about symbols, they can be interpreted differently by everyone who sees it. But his reasoning is just stupid. By that logic, the US flag would be higher on the objectionable list.
wanna bet?
The Marxist assault on America goes on unchecked by the wussy RINOs in congress and the sound asleep citizenry. IMHO the “Stars and Bars” will once again fly at the head of an avenging populace perhaps sooner than later.
So, from this article, I learn that the Chamber of Commies has been left-leaning for at least 20 years.
WAKE UP AMERICA we are being taken over day by day bit by bit and it is happening through education, medias, and perhaps the New World Order, to conform to Communistic creeds, to our own loss.
STOP!
Drive-bys taking a victory lap over something they’ve salivated over since the 80’s.
Next up, the Gadsden Flag. To be followed by the Cross.
Confederate flag DISTRACTION TIME , again ,LOL
Surely they can ban this:
“Every man should endeavor to understand the meaning of subjugation before it is too late… It means the history of this heroic struggle will be written by the enemy; that our youth will be trained by Northern schoolteachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the war; will be impressed by the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors, and our maimed veterans as fit objects for derision… It is said slavery is all we are fighting for, and if we give it up we give up all. Even if this were true, which we deny, slavery is not all our enemies are fighting for. It is merely the pretense to establish sectional superiority and a more centralized form of government, and to deprive us of our rights and liberties.”
Maj. General Patrick R. Cleburne, CSA, January 1864
Rush is totally on the mark re the American flag being the next flag to be targeted by the far left. It’s already happening on the campuses of American schools.
“The next flag that will come under assault, and it will not be long, is the American flag.”
And it will be replaced with the beautiful rainbow the flag. The only flag that really represents inclusion, diversity, and tolerance for all. {sick}
The flag ain’t going anywhere.
The same Libs who weep and wail when ISIS and the Taliban destroy ancient statues suddenly foam at the mouth and demand the destruction of all Confederate monuments throughout the South.
Go figure! Even the ancient Romans erected statues to Hannibal, the enemy of ROME.
I haven’t seen this madness and hysteria in America since Bobby Kennedy got shot back in 1968.
Raise the Gadsden instead....
No matter what region of the country, the Left is the common enemy. Regionalism needs to be set aside to fight it.
Use of the Confederate Flag by a insane person certainly deflects from his manifesto as his excuse citing the assults and murders of completely innocent whites, “hispanics, and asians, committed by black youths and their reason for the cold blood killing of Treyvon Martin. Doesn’t it ?
I do not believe in the veneration of The Confederate Flag. That’s my personal belief. I do not however supported it’s ban or an individuals right to own one. If that flag can be banned, then like speech, any other symbol, right up to The Stars And Stripes can be banned. This is madness.
