Anyone. Seriously anyone. Show me a valid defense of flying the Confederate flag today. I promise to listen carefully and constructively without making fun or calling names. Thank you.

1. It’s part of history.
2. Erasing history is ignorant.
3. It’s anybody’s freedom of speech to fly it.
4. It gets people upset, which is cool with me.
5. Tolerance goes both ways.
so you’d be fine if I flew a Nazi flag? Part of history
You’d be cool if I yelled “All Jews need to be slaughtered”. Free speech.
You’re okay with aborting babies? Tolerance goes both ways.

1. It's red, like the blood of Jeebus.
2. It's white, like the color of Jeebus' skin.
3. It's blue, like Jeebus' eyes.

The only Confederate flag worth noting is all white.

They should be thanking us Yankees for adding to their gene pool. Without us they would have sister fucked themselves into oblivion a few generations ago.

Quite a difference between saying something and doing something. You can TALK about aborting babies all day long, but actually doing it is crossing a line.

Flying a confederate flag is protected by the First Amendment, just as is burning the American flag. Doesn't necessarily mean you should do it, and context matters, but I guess it depends on what you mean by "defend." Moral defense? Legal defense? What are you after here exactly?

I'm thinking that the people that fly the Confederate Flag do so for much the same reason some Mexican Americans fly the flag of Mexico.

Why is one supported and the other vilified?


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Mexico is a real country with a real flag.


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.
