and how they have betrayed our country.

There was a 3rd Flag of the Confederacy. Also the one identified as the flag of the army of Tennessee was also the 2nd Conferate Navy Jack, the difference was in the color.

The Stars and Bars is neither of the lower two but actually the one in the upper left corner.

It got amended when...if it was not flying and unfurled, it looked like a surrender flag.... so they put a vertical red bar on the right end of it.

I actually could not care less which version of that flag represented what in its time. What bothers me is the miscreants who fly it to day with whatever scatterbrained notions it puts in their heads. In any version I see it as nothing less than a vulgar display of gross ignorance, disrespect, and a clear indicator that its owner is to my thinking despicable.

They can FUCKING CITE CITE CITE (happy now spelling cops???) every piece of crap made to appeal to their baser instincts, I will not be wrong.

Sorry, but the spelling mistake was made in a post AND in the reply, so I think it is useful to point it out, especially in a thread that is all about accuracy:

The two posts above need the word "cite", the root of the word "citation".

DU is a site.

so fucking what, I didn't use the spell checker, my bad for violating your precious spelling purity


On edit

As my friend looking over my shoulder said, if it was so tiny, why make such a big deal about it? Superiority issues? A pm would have sufficed.


Jesus Christ on a poopCYCLE stick make better use of your time here.

Get over it.

Apply a little logic: Spell checkers won't catch spelling substitutions where both words are valid words.

It's not my "spelling purity", it's your communication. If you wish to be willfully careless so that readers stumble over your posts, so be it.

But get this, it wasn't just you. And it's not about you. It's about your (and the other guy's) spelling.

If spelling and misspelling are so fundamental to your identity and self-esteem that you have to swear at a person gently reminding and calll them names, then spelling is not your biggest problem.

have a nice life.

Just a spelling mistake, like we all make from time to time.

Your "have a nice life" is very insincere and everybody knows it including you.

So be it.

Can I still vote?

That's the way it works in their world.

They also believe there are two facts. Ours and theirs. Theirs back them up, ours back us up. The difference is that since we have atheists on our side and they have Jesus on theirs then our side is facts from the Devil. You know,...all that science and book learnin' stuff. They'll just clasp their hands and get weepy over sunbeams in clouds and consider their ignorance a blessing and we are just the voice of the Devil trying to test their faith.

and they are proud of what their ancestors did, and they see no reason to stay a part of any government they don't like. They are mostly bonkers.

to SOMALIA????? No government over there telling anybody what to do. All the anarchy you can eat! And the guns to go with it!

Question: has there ever been a nation that defeated another in battle, allowed that former nations flag - or reference to it - to fly freely?
Even as a continuing part of the identity of the defeated nation?
It's absurd to the core. The flag of the Third Reich is illegal in Germany as are all references to Nazism.
The flag of Japan was changed after the war, etc.
The folks in the South who hold on to this image as part of their culture truly continue to treasonous.

Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason.
