Of course you have. ROFLMAO!

Yes of course I have and so have most people FYI. Most people don't like to see beautiful animals minding their own business getting killed for no good reason. No amount of media is necessary to bum them out when **** like that happens. Their gut instinct burns their insides when they see that kind of thing. I hate to break it to you, but that's a normal healthy human reaction. The human sociopath, well, that's another story.

[h=1]From WZEP...

[/h][h=1]HUNDREDS SHOW UP TO SUPPORT FOR CONFEDERATE FLAG RIDE[/h][h=1]
By: T.H. Merritt, WZEP
Area citizens turned out, once again, Sunday in support of the Confederate Flag. A convoy of hundreds of vehicles wound through Walton County circling the courthouse and continued on to the city of Crestview bound for the William Lundy War Memorial.
This latest dust up is over the order of Crestview Mayor David Cadle to remove the Confederate Flag from the Lundy Memorial on July 3rd. Cadle said he was responding to a Lundy relative who wanted the flag moved to private property. Cadle said he thought the relative spoke on behalf of the entire Lundy family.
The City Council ordered the flag restored to the monument at last Monday’s meeting. City Clerk Elizabeth Roy told WZEP that the Mayor acted alone and without the approval of City Council.
The Crestview City Council has scheduled a special meeting this Thursday night to discuss the issue.
Last week, Walton County Commissioners voted unanimously to keep the Confederate Flag flying high above the Confederate War Memorial in Defuniak Springs after repeated attempts to have it removed. In a compromise, they voted to swap the Battle Flag for the actual “Stars and Bars,” which is the more historically accurate Flag of the Confederacy.
The Confederate Flag has become the target of activists who are seeking to remove all vestiges of Confederate history from public view after a lone gunman killed several church members in South Carolina last month and a photo of him wrapped in a battle flag surfaced on the internet. Since then, efforts to exhume the bodies of Confederate Generals and their families from their graves, the sandblasting of Stone Mountain, GA, the removal of the Mississippi State flag and even the coat of arms from Alabama State Troopers patrol cars and uniforms have increased.
The backlash of flag supporters has been swift. Flag makers and suppliers nationwide say they can’t keep up with the demand for the Confederate flag. They are working overtime to fill orders and have had to hire extra staff.
An employee, who did not want to be identified, of DIXIE OUTFITTERS (a retailer of southern apparel, flags and other southern-centric merchandise) told WZEP she has never seen demand so high. She said nearly 100 percent of their business for the last month is nothing but Confederate flags. The representative said people are now putting them on their homes and private businesses and the orders are coming from all over the United States.

No one has ever said we want it "out of public view" as the writer in the story says. Fly it everywhere but not on government property.

A MESSAGE FROM “COOTER” AKA BEN JONES
8-2-15
When the crusaders of political correctness embarked on their campaign of
cultural cleansing against every vestige of the Confederacy, they forgot about
a few things.
They forgot that 70 to 80 million Americans are descended from the men who took up arms for the South 150 years ago. They forgot that we, their descendants, do not turn our backs on our ancestors. Those men did what they thought was their Constitutional right in the context of their times and we honor them for their legendary courage and their very real sacrifice. They are our flesh and blood and we will never disdain their memory. That cannot be undone by a few posturing and pandering politicians.
They also forgot that every national poll shows that a strong majority of Americans supports leaving the flag alone. A CNN poll showed that 57% felt that the flag is a symbol of “Southern Heritage”. A poll by Suffolk University showed that 70% oppose the Government banning the Confederate Battle Flag. Americans understand that an attack on anyone’s Constitutional rights is an attack on everyone’s Constitutional rights.
Our simple and peaceful protest is working and it is imperative that we keep it peaceful, happy, positive, and non-violent. The protest is simple: Fly your flag.
Since our opponents have been taught that we are hateful, we can only prove them wrong by not being hateful. If they are hateful towards us, we must turn the other cheek and understand that they have been taught a prejudice against us. As we wave our flags with pride, we must also be respectful toward those who disagree with us, remembering that we cannot make friends by anger or resentment. Those who have closed minds about us are looking for provocative incidents. We must stay
on the high road at all times.
The “Politically Correct Police” also overlooked the tens of millions of Americans of all colors, ethnicities, and regions for whom the Dukes of Hazzard has become a permanent part of their lives and of their family memories. Hazzard Nation has been leading the fight to turn back this mindless scourge of cultural cleansing. The Dukes “fight the system” and that message of independence and rebelliousness to
authority is absolutely vital in our freedom loving nation.
Yesterday there were Rebel Flags flying “from sea to shining sea.” Americans are standing up and fighting back against this wave of demagoguery and destruction of history, and we of Hazzard Nation are in the front ranks. Miss Alma and I are thankful to everyone and deeply grateful for your display of solidarity and support for the things that really matter. We will never stop fighting, we will never stop protesting, and we will never back down an inch.
(On another note, I want to thank everyone for their patience regarding the delay in processing your orders from Cooter’s. Out of thousands of orders, there are about 150 that are “screwed up” because of a PayPal malfunction. Believe me y’all, we are “on the case”. Somehow, we will make it up to you in the days ahead.)
The coming weeks will bring new challenges. We must face them with courage and humility. For what is going on is not just a threat to Southern Heritage. It is a genuine threat to the very foundations of American liberty. We must not give up or give in. And we must continue in a way that is in the best traditions of Southern behavior, and in the best traditions of American dissent.
May God Bless the United States of America!
Ben Jones aka “Cooter”

As sickening as it is, a decision has been made for now to keep a Confederate flag on government property. By encouraging folks to post their opinions over and over again shows your own willingness to promote " the fighting and keeping your base fired up" . Enough! Please moderators shut this thread down for it no longer serves the good of our community.

Neither does what Uhlfelder has done that has made this thread grow exponentially.
