Re: The Confederate Flag
I read earlier that the Apple store has taken down some Civil War games as they had the Confederate flag on them - that kinda sounds like a step too far

I realize I'm double posting this, but it could equally go in either thread.

I made the second after they took the original down at The Pit claiming that my use of "gay ass shirt" was homophobic. I regret not choosing my words more carefully, but they would have found another excuse.CopperTom wrote: I never knew there was a second video. The first one is still the best.

Re: The Confederate Flag
The KKK has been granted approval for a pro Confederate flag rally in Columbia in a couple of weeks.
Apparently they don't realize that will do just the opposite of helping their cause.

No. I didn't post it at the Pit, and I'm allowed to make whatever YouTube videos I want.CopperTom wrote:Did they threaten to revoke your membership?B wrote:I made the second after they took the original down at The Pit claiming that my use of "gay ass shirt" was homophobic.

Re: The Confederate Flag
TVLand has pulled The Dukes of Hazzard. I'm pretty certain if you were still watching the show the General Lee didn't offend you.
