Is not this uproar over our Stars and Bars ''it racist'' ''it represents a people who wanted to save the institution od slavery''?

The civil war wasn't about slavery, the North could care less whether or not African American slaves were free or being protected from harm by southern townsfolk or slave masters. It was about restoring the union, and quashing the rebellion. The people who owned slaves represented a very small minority of southerners(even northerners owned slaves), the people who fought in the Confederate States Military were fighting not for their newly formed nation but for the small minority of rich slave owners who wanted to continue getting away with heinous things.

If any actual living slaves out there are offended then I do apologize... They even went so far as to cancel "Dukes of Hazard" from Classic TV. Senator McCarthy, is that you? But they are the people who wanted to outlaw heavy metal music in the 1980's but settled for placing warning labels on album covers instead. Google it: it was called PRMC headed by Tipper Gore.

Liberals are such hypocrites. Historically many whites and blacks fought for the confederate army who did not care about the slaves as much as fighting to protect thier homeland. But yet the liberals are now waging this war against the confederat flag simply because the Ku klux clan made it a symbol of racism but yet even the liberals respect the sons of the japanese World War Two veterans who fought for the security of thier homeland and not the fanatical religion and ideology of the japanese in the 40s but then they go attacking the sons of confederate veterans who fly thier flag because of thier liberal ideological and racial rancor bull ****.

White Americans did not give up their lives for N-words (word the actual Union soldiers would have used), they gave up their lives to protect America from Southern aggression, a sense of duty to country. Slaves were just incidental.

Well or the French or the English.

Well or the Russians.

Or all of South America.

Or do you just mean literal slaves, rather than serfs and peons?

No.

People say lots of things. It doesn't prove anything.

it's a flag...........Lynyrd Skynyrd will keep the flag alive........, if it goes then I say rap music goes, I find their lyrics racist and offensive
