This is not about race, it's about heritage and FIGHTING AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT. To me, THAT is what the Confederate flag stands for and I hope people keep it alive. I understand that black people may not be comfortable with it, but there are a lot of aspects of THEIR culture I am not comfortable with. Rap music or hip hop for example. Everything can't be about white people constantly giving up all parts of our lives to make black people "comfortable" because that is never gonna happen. They're always gonna find something to bitch about because it's a CONTROL thing. |

It makes me laugh. Just like Archie Bunker and George Jefferson, hating on each other and black and white, they made you laugh. This is what is so awful about the left, they don't know how to laugh. They're nothing but misanthropes, and they will never be satisfied with anything because they are drowning in their own pathetic misery. I, personally, don't give a damn about their feelings because they don't give a damn about mine or anyone else's. Plus, they are pure ingrates, the kind of people most human beings go out of their way to avoid. Think about it, it's a flag, a damn flag, but someone might be offended. Well welcome to the USA, you're allowed to offend people. |

User ID: 77993004 United States 06/22/2020 01:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: ALABAMA: Plane Flies Confederate Flag Over Talladega Speedway With A Banner That Reads DEFUND NASCAR NASCAR turned to shit more than twenty years ago. They were paying the race baiters to leave them alone. At the same time they decided they needed Toyota in the program, and broke most of their own rules to make that happen. Even with the purpose built race engine developed by GM engineers, Toyota was still not competitive, so they kept changing rules until they got their Toyota championship. The racing used to great when the cars were different, and the drivers were real American heroes. Now they just play follow the leader at Talladega, where the greatest races of all time were held, 50 years ago. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. "America is at that awkward stage.

It was more common in the north for slaves to integrate with their "owners" more as equals than in the south. In reality only 2% of the entire population owned slaves. The black slave owners were known to be the most vicious and cruel. War is coming |
