Because they're too prejudiced to use good old fashioned crack...

Today, the flag doesn't really bother me. I can take it with a grain of salt. The attitudes behind the flag, be them just normal people or people that hate others, makes all the difference. You don't have to carry a rebel flag to have a closed mind, nor do all those that have the flag have a closed mind, either.
Honestly, to me, making a big deal about the flag only gives the drama behind it some steam. Live & let live is my motto,...
OM - as usual, you have put my exact feelings on the issue into perfect words. thanks.
I do not like the flag hanging publicly as big as you please, but if it makes people happy, well then, fine. I realize it has historical meaning but it has other meanings and uses as well that have nothing to do with anything good, imo. also I know for a fact that at least half the southern rednecks who put in on their trucks have not one clue about what it means. its just a good ole boy symbol for them. and I really do not like what my mind automatically thinks about a person when they do fly it.. my own pre-conceived notions about that person are not right. in fact, they are very specific and narrow. so, I am the one who needs to do better, not them.
bottom line. fly it if you like it.
And this last line says everything about the person that does fly it.
ok, thanksNo, but Minnesota isn't exactly dixie either. I was just saying that if your flying it that far north your probably not doing it for heritage reasons.
well dont judge a book by its cover.No, but there are MANY who unfortunately choose to display it for those reasons, so my first thought when I see that flag isn't that someone is full of pride, but hatred.
i'm thinking all our postings and rantings are cyber-bumper stickers....dude!
