Not sure why the Flag of Continuing Slavery should be a controversy to be removed. Yea Yea spare me the states rights bullshit. It was all about the continuation of slaves as property. It was money. The south knew what it would cost if they actually had to pay people to work the fields and all the other tasks. Opps forgot historical truth is not allowed here.

The Mohammedans date a little farther back than the Ottoman Empire.And the Ottomans ruled that region a little more recently and a great deal longer than Muhammad, you Mussulman-luvin, Hitler worshipping, lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM. And the Ottomans had an elite corps of slaves called "Janisarries" created from a levy on young Christian boys taken from European domains, you Mussulman-luvin, Hitler worshipping, lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM.
So no, you're completely wrong about something else. Tremendous surprise there.
Even MORE surprising is how you brought slavery into the thread.

Yes, it stood for slavery--among other things. Yes, a lot of honorable men died on both sides fighting for what they believed. But they were rebels and traitors who LOST. Not such flag should fly. Had the American revolution failed, would the stars and stripes be flying in Boston today? Originally Posted by Old-T

I don't give a shit what the intended meaning was, it was co-opted by the confederacy and forever tarnished. Let it go.

You don't know shit from the mud in your eyes. It is tarnished because those who were fighting for an economy based around the enslavement of other human beings rose up and got their asses kicked and rightfully so.

Like racism is more prevalent in the north, because you've lived both places? You anecdotal dickhead. In my mind, all roads lead to the truth.

Like I said all roads lead to racism for atheist liberal jackasses like you.
"The war had its origin in the fractious issue of slavery, especially the extension of slavery into the western territories."
"The first six to secede had the highest proportions of slaves in their populations, a total of 48.8% for the six"

The idea that it's more prevalent up north is something that you cannot prove, so therefore it's bullshit.

Over 50% of blacks live in the Southern States according to the last U.S. Census. Blacks Americans are free to settle any where they like. If the Southern States are inherently vicious and racist towards blacks why do the majority of Black Americans remain in the Southern States? Like I stated before, all roads lead to racism. Liberals aren't happy without it. Liberals don't want racism to end. They need it. This country wouldn't have a race problem if liberals, atheists and gays would just shut the fuck up.
I'm proudly atheist. I don't believe in fairytales. Have you talked to yourself tonight? (that's what we call praying) Originally Posted by WombRaider
