All America, like it or not, exists as an act of rebellion against the authority of Great Britain, so to deride and denounce the Confederate flag, Virginia flag, battle flag, whatever you want to call it, could be considered a kind of hypocrisy. It's not the flag that killed, it's the instruction of politicians, world over.


This would make more sense if England won. Do you view Old Glory as a symbol of slavery and/or racism?

To play along do you have similar feelings toward the nazi flag or Jesus on the cross.  The imagery is what represents a history of people, their beliefs, sorrows, regrets, and hope for the future.  You can not separate the two.  I think there is room to juxtapose these images in some fashion to change or enhance its original meaning or historical significance.  

It may not be a pipe but it still represents one.

The image was removed.  It just started a short debate that derailed the tread for a second.  

I need to post my rising sun cap.  It is so light colored now. I have been thinking about dying it blue or black lately.
