If a neighbor chose to fly a Nazi flag on his property and on his pole while I would not like it I would not do a darn thing as long as my neighbor did not carry any of his belief to a level directly affecting others or myself. Your Cody scenario reminds me of my duties in human resources where in fact I did on more than one ocassion have to deal with people heavily on drugs and/or in a very unstable mental state. I calmed them down until I could get help for them . I also had my life threatened. You do what is necessary and responsible for the safety of others as well as yourself. But let's get to the crux of this whole Confederate Flag debate. We have among us Al Sharpton, Allen Byron Jesse jackson and other interested parties who are seizing on every tidbit to make a claim of prevalent racism covering America. Allen Byron had the audacity at a $25,000 plate black function to tell Obama to nick the AT&T merger because AT&T was racist. The irony of the claims of racism are lost to these race baiters when a black president the most powerful position on this planet sits at the head of the table. Let me be clear sharpton and company are pushing this agenda not because it is true but because it has political advantage for their making fame and fortunate. and this is one white guy who is sick and tired of hearing this nonsense. Race relations were better before the 1964 Civil rights Laws came into effect. Race relations began to hum again and America made great headway until sharpton and company recognized they becoming were obsolete The Confederate Flag debate is just another pawn in their drama. Well perhaps its time the silent majority speaks up. Perhaps they can begin with No Justice, No Peace Personal Best Regards: |

Would your Nazi flag flying neighbor say 'I respect the courage of my Nazi ancestors', as the confederate flag flyers are saying? If Rev Sharpton is really behind this movement to take down the confederate flag, he must be more powerful than previously thought. In the past week the Govs of South Carolina, Alabama, Virginia, and North Carolina have removed some form of this flag. Senators from SC and MS have spoken out against it, along with many other members of congress. Corporations such as Boeing, BMW, Mercedes Benz, and Nascar all jumped on the ban the flag bandwagon. Retailers Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, Sears, E-Bay, Amazon and others all pulled this merchandise from their stores and web-sites. The largest flag-maker, Valley Forge, will stop producing the flag. |

I find this race war being hoisted on America by liberals to be the epitome of hypocrisy and ironic in that we have a black president elected twice many blacks in positions of authority all across this nation and dominating in the entertainment and sports arena's . More blacks voted in the south then did whites. No other race or ethnic group makes demands or threats of riots but blacks. No other race or ethnic group has a History Month. Should I go on........? Again i think its time the rest of us white, asian etc push back and tell these liberal and /or black leaders to get over themselves Personal Best Regards: |

And why do you think the politicians designated these special months ? This nation was not founded upon gender or racial identity but an idea of freedom etc. Kowtowing to any group is a destructive force in the long run By the way remember Asian Hispanics ,etc are marching in the streets are they?

You sir mistake what I have been saying on these pages. I believe in everyone having a fair opportunity and not a fair result. I will and have defended those who could not defend themselves. I hold Thomas Sowell and Jason Riley in high esteem because they did what many ethnic groups did when they arrived here they maintained their dignity and self reliance and self respect. so please knock off the sly remarks and have an unemotional debate so that we both may benefit Personal Best Regards: |

I never realized the Civil War was still going on until my first visit to the South forty years ago. The Confederate Battle Flag has just as much negativity associated with it as the flag displayed by the Nazi's during Hitler's reign. Each flag is revered by those who embrace it's ideology. "O say does that star spangled banner yet wave, o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?"

I believe citizens ought to reassess this faux notion about the Confederate Flag because it has not been any real threat to anyone. In South Carolina a governor of Indian Decent, a black senator and a black president were in the forefront of this debate.
Yet we had an American black leading an American Muslim organization agreeing that the Confderate Flag was not an issue, however, the American Flag was and it should come down. Now that's scary We have so called liberal intellectuals who cast deep and hateful dispersions on America. Now that is scary. We have Obama's top adviser Valerie Jarett whose grandparents and parents were Communists and who she herself is a devote Muslim advising a president on dealing with Muslim issues . And by America's counting Obama has not been very effective. Anyone care to venture a guess as to why? Now that is scary. Personal Best Regards: |
