oh yeah??

do your research.

it was the flag for about the last half year of the war.

the design itself was prominent, but it was not the official flag until the last half year of the war.

stealthy is right I just googled it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flags_o...tes_of_America

And you'll still be pumping my gas. Lleno, premio, porfa.

bold words bitch. why'd you run away to costa rica in the first place pussy ? not educated enough and want to have kids and cant afford the states ?

this is the comment you come back with just cuz i made a crude comment about what that flag really represents ?

[THE PROFIT]

the battle flag is the battle flag. It is what it is, it is the recognized flag

[Wulfman14]

I meant it as a southern thing. I'm from louisiana myself. Does it get more racist than the South? Hell, I didn't even know that "******-riggin something" or "jewin' somebody down" were racist phrases until I moved outta the south and was informed otherwise.

maybe someone in costa rica will put some rounds in your head then you will know what the difference between racist and normal phrases are

A peer-reviewed study showed that exposure to the Confederate battle flag results in more negative judgments of black targets and resulted in lowered willingness to vote for Barack Obama among white students at Southern Virginia University. The study concluded that the prevalence of this flag in the South might contribute to a reluctance to vote for a political candidate because of his race.[23]

That's on wikipedia..if somebody's vote is influenced by a flag they shouldn't be allowed to vote...

Im gonna start flying the Nazi flag because it represents my background. My great grandpa was a Nazi soldier.

Shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Nazi soldiers were just a victim of an ugly regime. If you were to fly a swastika that is your right but that is an ugly symbol.

That's a real good comparison there bro, go for it. Du bist ein kleine schildkroeten mit keine eier.

i agree that the flag represents more than the slavery of black people, southerners wanted their independence BUT the south was fighting for the wrong reason. it was more about wanting to keep their slaves than for independence. if it was only for independence from the USA i would be proud of that flag and it would be a different story altogether. your family profit was not fighting to be free from tyranny or genocide, they were fighting so that they did not have to work in the fields.

The swastika doesnt represent anything good. Im not saying the confederate battle flag does either, Im just asking for everyones thoughts on it.

I'm sure you've heard this before but what is good and bad usually depends on who won.

I need to educate myself further on this matter. what I don't get is when you go up to like virginia or west virgina and you see pick up trucks with the the confederate flag in the window.

[Cuse0323]

Doesn't bother me but I think it is stupid when you drive through Texas towns in the country and they have 2 of these flags on their cars and bumper stickers. Think it is pointless to tell you the truth.

well at least they're not stiffs.

what I find amusing about Texas is they dont fly their state flag any smaller than the US flag

The "battle" flag symbllizes nothing more or less to me than a hillbilly that is ignorant and uses the flag to show how ignorant they are. Most don't know the actual meaning or history they use it to stand out. It's for attention and a symbolizing of being white.I never see a successful person with a flag on their Mercedes or Escalade. It is always some bumfukk toothless prick in his 1974 Ramcharger.

I know swastikas are used all over Asia, but they are used as a religious symbol. They have them om temples and even government buildings.

I dont have time to teach you the constitution or 4th grade history

The swastika represents my background. Im not saying I believe in exterminating jews, but it represents me as a person. You don't think I would be offending people by flying it and wearing it do you?

I've seen them on jewelry as well. The symbol was used to mean well being and good luck, way before Nazism.
