The Confederate Flag

[E.H. Ruddock]

Why would anyone want to live in the south?

nice beaches with warm ocean water. And collard greens.

Beautiful mountains, BBQ, sweet potatoes

Damn right

There was once a KKK rally in the town in New Hampshire where my parents had a lake house; it happened because the first black family ever had moved into town. This was...2001? Maybe 2002, but couldn't have been much earlier/later than that.

It was actually 1999: http://www.bostonphoenix.com/archive/fe ... 3/KKK.html

It's kinda awesome that the people flying that flag are squashing the whole notion that it was a "southern pride" thing.

I'm afraid of Americans.

That's an offensive statement there bub. The South is a beautiful place, full of good people (take a look at the way Charleston handled the Church massacre), the laid back demeanor, and as mentioned, great food. Oh, and the landscape. The beach, the mountains, the lakes, the swamps, the old country roads, it's great down there. I miss it.

I've seen facebook pictures of you reacting to an inch of snow.

Calling people pussies because they don't like hot or cold weather is really dumb

Graffiti's not really helping the cause. All of these things are on their way to coming down, but when people spray paint a statue of a Confederate soldier, all they do is make people more vehemently defend them and extend the amount of time they spend up in Southern towns.

The Whigs and Democrats both had pro- and anti-slavery wings.

For chud: (ostensibly) a quote to a foreigner at the time explaining the civil war: "the act of Massachusetts conquering the rest of the country".

Disagree. I dont care if you like or dislike any specific kind of weather. It's the bitching about it that leads you to be mocked.
