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.
