A new look at an old beaten subject.
 
Question for all.
 
Is the Confederate stars and bars a symbol of hatered or can we look at it as a symbol of the end of slavery. Sure it was used as a battle flag but the southern leaders knew that slavery was going to have to be abolished even if the had won the Civil War.
 
Your thoughts please. 
 
Still puffing my pipe

Why don't we look at it as a battle flag and let it go at that?

And if some of ya didn't know, the flag on the left is the,"Stars and Bars." The one on the right is of course the Battle Flag.

American Nazis always parade with a bunch of American flags flying, should we do away with that one too?

It's an odd question TC if you look a it. THEY MAY PARADE CARRYING THE AMERICAN FLAG BUT ARE THEY REPRESENTING AMERICA AND IT'S VIEWS WHILE DOING SO. IF A BY-STANDER FROM A FOREIGN COUNTRY SAW IT WHAT WOULD THEY THINK OF AMERICAN AND IT'S VIEWS.

REF THE KKK. THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN OUTLAWED A LONG TIME AGO. WHEN YOU ALLOW THEM TO MEET OR PARADE IF MEANS THAT YOU TOLERATE THEIR VIEWS.

One of the down sides of being American Taz, we have to tolerate all kinds of nut jobs and their views.

HERE GROUPS LIKE THE KLAN ARE COVERED UNDER OUR ANTI-HATE LAWS AND WOULD BE JAILED FOR IT. I'M SURE BRITAIN HAS THE SAME LAWS.YOU CAN STAND ON A SOAP BOX ALL YOU LIKE AS LONG AS YOU DON'T PREACH HATE TOWARD ANOTHER GROUP OF PEOPLE. FOR THAT YOU GO TO JAIL.

Then there wouldn't be a black preacher, or a Mullah on a pulpit anywhere in the world.
