That comparison of the ANV battleflag to the nazi flag came straight out of CPUSA headquarters. You probably didn't know that the Starry Cross flag has gone into battle with Southerners in every single war since 1865. My uncles had it with them in WWII and Korea, my cousins had it with them in 'Nam.

Just who do you think fights the wars for the US, anyway? Mostly Southerners, that's who.

I am not attacking Southerners, I know many people from the South and they are great folks.
Nor am I challenging their loyaty to the US.
I have not studied the history of the Confederate flag as to what American battles or wars it has flown in.
I don't have all the facts, but I do know that the Confederate flag was commisioned by a seperatist regime whose intentions were to annex the Southern half of this country and form a new republic. This action to devide the Union of States was a violation of the US constition and was viewed by Licoln as a threat to the overall survival of this country.
I also know that when Fort Sumtner was overun by Confederate soldiers the US flag was taken down and replaced with the Confederate flag.
This act identified the Confederate flag as the banner of the seperatist movement and therefore was viewed by the Washington D.C. as the flag of the enemy.
Some people view the flag as offensive. If the Government by law forces young people to attend school, then that same government is obligated to protect them from being harrassed or offended.

God bless this Country, the North and the South


P.S.....I know some of you do not agree with me but thats OK, In all my life I have not ever come across any two people who see eye to eye on everything. If you feel you must then Flame Away
