As a lifelong Liberal I agree with you Tom I too am s**k of dumbasses in all Parties especially Mine. This is ridiculous I am not the sports fan Aggie is but this stupid culture war crap has gone too far. To have problems with an American F**g on any article is beyond stupid! I am sorry that this is going on. Being with Aggie I have learned more about southern history then I ever knew. He will fly the actual F**g of the CSA and not the BattleF**g. He has that f**g given to him by his dad before he passed away 10yrs ago. That f**g is in the Man cave h*****g proudly. He has told myself and our daughter that he has ancestors that served in the CSA and were at Gettysburg and other major battles. While we lived in PA we went to tour not only Gettysburg(a 45min drive from Harrisburg), Antietham in MD and the Civil War Museum in Harrisburg. None of my ancestors were even in the states until 1880(Italy and Poland) but my daughter's father's family had Union soldiers who fought at Gettysburg. I have no problems with southerners who are proud of their past even though they lost the war. I don't agree with tearing down monuments. I agree with Aggie that these monuments in southern cities should be moved to any number of civil war battlefield sites and not scrapped because a small group got their feelings hurt. I support recognizing civil rights for everyone black,white, brown, polkadot, Gay etc. Screaming every southern white is a r****t today is STUPID! This is a serious problem that the left of my party needs to get over. So to AllMy fellow Democrats especially the extreme left...GET OVER IT Yes the North Won and preserved the union. Yes the biggest followers that display the trad.f**g recognized as the Confederate F**g are Republicans. Many are followers of Mr Trump and the MAGA faction. They are Not R****ts. Their ancestors (most of them) rebelled not to support s***ery but State's Rights...PEOPLE Its 2024 Time to Move forward and accept what happened between 1860-1865. We need to avoid anything like this from happening again. Both liberals and conservatives need to come together.(Being with a Proud Texan and Rebel the last 6yrs has shown me that they are proud of their history and they are not r****ts.) They are not in 2024 responsible to pay all b****s r********ns(spelling??). Aggie's family as afar as he knows owned no s***es (they were too poor and were not in cotton country he told me).
