Try taking off the race tinted glasses then. Being less judgemental means being more open and objective.
go to the oklahoma full auto shoot, and tell me how many confederate flags you see, then count the number of black people.
guarantee you the answer to the second one is 0

I laugh at the people that consider the Confederate Flag a symbol of racism, while its true you can link the two they are separated by many other aspects.

I agree, take the race card and put it back up your sleeve....

That's interesting because I know more than a few non-white people who legally own NFA weapons and a host more who are enthusiasts.

I am saddened regardless of skin tone that after 5 days you felt the need to bump this thread with a post like that.

Your first attack on the full auto shoot was based on a few mullets and confederate flags at a gun show?

In popular culture one would think.  There are valid meanings to display the Confederate flag that don't have racsim as its motivation however.

I do appreciate the irony of your BBS handle.

Unlike Golfer, I don't appreciate the borderline plagiarism and unoriginality of using the name of a murdered rap artist.....

Despite the idiocy of the rest of what you've said in that thread, this is hilarious, however much you're about to get piled on...

The irony of his handle, his attitude and him.

I personally don't much care for rap "music" but that's another post for another thread for another time.

Yea I kinda mis-worded that a little bit Golfer.

Should have read something like, "Although Golfer may appreciate the irony I don't..."

My mistake, I get what your saying though...

The "Confederate Flag" that you happily refer to is not actually the flag of the Confederacy.  It is INfact the Battle flag of the Confederacy, and it has nothing at all to do with Racism.  That is a misnomer, the Confederacy infact was not started because of slavery, it was started for States rights.  I am offended by the fact that the Race card was thrown out so quickly.  I for one saw nothing that even would remotely bring that up.  Just because I have a pony tail, a rifle, a few handguns, and enjoy shooting them, does not make me a racist, any more than the fact I wear Cowboy boots, Levis and my dog is on a chain.  This thread was not started to go where it went, I am sure that the OP meant only to show a few folks having fun.  I am from Texas, a southern state, I am the 8th generation of my family in this state.  I had kinfolk at the Alamo,(on the inside),and I have a lot of pride in that.  I had family that fought in the War of Northern Aggression.  That does not make me a racist, and I resent the implication.
  All that said, Tupac all that you have done by stating what you did was in effect get this thread locked, I can see a lot getting see RULE 14 in the near future.  Probably myself included.

rap is noise, only slightly less irritating than the noise emitted by a fart can on a riced up honda.......
