It's really hard to take someone seriously when they say "Freedom-loving Americans" while they have a Confederate Battle flag as part of their avatar (even if it IS part of the Lynyrd Skynrd logo).

I know it's another topic, but I no longer believe the whole "state's rights" argument. I've read the Confederate Constitution and it was NOT up to the states to decide about slavery. You HAD to be a slave state. You HAD to respect "property rights" from other states and you were NOT ALLOWED to later abolish or outlaw slavery. Hence, there were no state's rights and that was a smoke screen.
