This whole thing is an embarrassment for both "sides".

But people like you don't understand that or care, you just want to be able to label the other side as racists and pat yourself on the back for being more evolved than them.

Because nothing proves how evolved you are on race like taking down one out of a countless number of different flags that may fly on any given local government property.

Is it best to move the flag in our new PC obsessed culture? Yes

Does it make a difference in the world? Nope

Is this just another political tool for the sheep to go BAAAHHHHHH! over? No doubt

I haven't said anything about the people of SC. Just their flag. I'm not making a big deal about it either. It's just a flag. One little victory.

There is no victory. In no way is this doing anything about racism.

I bet you now it also will not stop the manufacturing and selling of these flags. Wanna bet it opens up a new market for someone?

that's my take on both counts....mentioned this in another thread.....it's too easy to take advantage of the situation....

all this has done is helped promote another niche market....people forget headlines.....the increase in confederate purchases will last a lifetime...

in addition, it likely has helped promote further hatred amongst the pontificating pc morons

I personally hope the morons keep it up......just as fit gets hogtied when he pens his ilk, so will they en masse one day....

...and yet you're making a big deal about it. Funny how you don't even recognize your own hypocrisy.

"Simple Man" is one of my favorite songs to hear, as well as to play on guitar.

I hate that song with the fire of a thousand suns!! All because a local radio station played the sh*t out of the Seether (or maybe Stone Sour. I'm not sure) acoustic cover.

You have no idea how much they played that song. It probably wasn't, but it felt like they played that song every 15 MINUTES. People kept requesting that version, nearly causing me to go on a 12 state killing spree!! It was that bad.

That one is rather horrible.

What makes SCOM is Slash's guitar.... the into, the verse, the chorus, the amazing solo's.

Arguable the best sounding guitar ever recorded.

What the heck is Sheryl Crow doing remaking a song like that?

ugh

I agree. Ban the American flag. We're headed in that direction, anyway.

Both of you should be ktfo. Little cowards. Who cares if your little piece of crap symbol was taken down.... IT IS A SYMBOL OF PEOPLE WHO LOST AND GAVE UP! No other way to put it.

Not necessarily. I have always been fiscally liberal and socially conservative. I am becoming however more socially and fiscally liberal in my old age.

Can't take it with you. Might as well share it.

You may wish to visit Oklahoma, where Native Americans are doing quite well, thank you very much.

Remind me which flag and which army marches them waaaay out there ?
