Virginia Rednecks Let Their Freak Flag Fly

[finnbow]

Some jagoffs thought it a good idea to fly a 22x30' Confederate flag on private land right next to I-95 near Fredericksburg, VA. While I understand freedom of expression and property rights, this seems to me to be a deliberate provocation to me by a bunch of Lost Cause @ssholes.

I'm not big on political correctness, but deliberately provoking people, many of whom had slave ancestors (and may indeed still face some level of racism) is insensitive in the extreme.

Tatoo it on your ass if you want to, but don't fly it on the Interstate.

I thought they were flying it on private property.

Don't you think it's about time for people to dump the chip on their shoulders and just dry up about how rough their ancestors had it?

This is no more than a divisrsion, and a cheap political ploy.

Just look around as to who is giving the horse fucking now.

It's meant to be provocative. Don't be provoked. That said, I've no problem with anyone making a big nonviolent stink about it.

Mebbe it's time for some folks to quit rubbing slavery in the face of their descendents so they can feel superior to someone else and justified in a war defending a despicable practice.

Union artillery was clearly superior.

Firing on Ft Sumpter was clearly a miscalculation of probabilities and Lincolns Unionist determination tho some still insist on referring to it as "the war of Northern agression".

I think it's time for asshole rednecks to give up on the past and face the long overdue death of their rancid mindset or get their teeth kicked in.

That's what time I think it is.
