excerpt:
>>>...Let's be very clear here. The confederacy was never recognized as a sovereign state, not by a single world government at the time. It was an illegitimate political entity which committed acts of treason against America, and started a war costing over 600,000 lives in total. All because they refused to give up the practice of slavery. That is the heritage these haters say they are so proud of. They were wrong, they LOST the war they began, yet somehow we're supposed to allow them to continue intimidating all of us with their hate banner. Ask any reasonable person what first comes to mind when they see the rebel flag, and see what they say! Sore losers who would just as soon kill you!
These days it isn't enough to just speak truth to power, we must also speak truth to ignorance, bigotry and racism; because, clearly, keeping our silence hasn't worked out so well now has it?<<<...
