Which flag is more offensive to you?!

Personally, living in California, home to the largest number of illegals, the Mexican flag offends me. Not only did the Mexicans use Native Americans taken captive and enslaved by them, they also made war with us, and were soundly defeated in Mexico in the Mexican-American War, so to fly that flag is offensive, mostly because these people are here illegally and flying the flag to stick it in our face.

Then, the rainbow flag offends me because it is like flying flagrant sexual sin in the face of those who disagree with their perversions.

So, if the Confederate Battle flag offends some, and must come down, than so should the Mexican and Gay rainbow flag.Just thinking out loud, and wondering if anyone else feels the same??? :type:

Facebook said it will ban posts that have the confederate flag BUT promote Gays and their queer flag? Facebook know's whats best for us dumb folks now.

Zaac, you are such an Islamaphobe in your opposition to polygamy.

Get help.:thumbsup:

Let me repeat that this flag that so many of you are defending ISN'T the Flag of the Confederate States.

THe Battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia that so many are defending was adopted specifically to show the KKK's opposition to integration.

Cabaniss describes how the Confederate battle flag emerged “out of limbo” as a symbol of white supremacy and segregation during the Dixiecrat political campaign of 1948, when Strom Thurmond of South Carolina ran for president on a platform of states’ rights and segregation. Newspaper accounts of the States Rights Democratic Party convention in Birmingham, Alabama, describe delegates marching into the auditorium under Confederate battle flags as bands played “Dixie.” This set the stage for the adoption of the battle flag by the Ku Klux Klan and the White Citizens Councils across the South as a symbol of their racist opposition to integration. The first time I can remember seeing a picture of the battle flag carried in public was during the Clinton, Tennessee, race riot in 1956, when hooded Klansmen descended on the town and paraded down the main street under the flag.

But the Mayor of the Salt City has had that flag fly over City hall, and the Governor said it will fly at the New York State Fair this year.

Your Turn Zaac

Neither have been placed up to fly every day.

And the flag they are talking about flying ISN'T the Confederate Flag. The flag they want to fly was adopted by the KKK and white supremacists in opposition to integration.

So if they choose to fly THAT flag, they choose to highlight the racism that so many already think they are displaying.

Your turn.

Thanks for your input Salty. However, I didn't ask about the flags flying over any statehouse, but rather if any of the flags mentionsed were offensive when seen displayed in the public. Out her in Mexifornia, that flag is just about everywhere! It looks like you are living south of the border. The good thing is, I can take a trip to a foreign country with ging more than a mile or two! :smilewinkgrin:

Was the flag of Mexico intended to represent a regime that hated North Americans, Indians and Yucatanis?

Considering what that regime did-- e.g., the Alamo and Goliad-- yes.

Was that satanic flag created to represent gay folks who hated street preachers?

That's what it's being used for. I thought that was the essence of the conflicts about the Confederate battle flag. But if you still want to argue that point and say it's about "pride," so is the battle flag. Anyway, pride in who one is has the opposite and equal pride in who one ain't.

Here in the Salt City, we have a good size Hispanic Population (along with 2 Spanish SBC churches) so there are many flags flying.

Oh, well. If you liked this kind of humor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lWO3Xmwq50 , you better watch it now. The PC POS s may pull it tomorrow. This one is The Beverly Hillbillies episode, "The Great Feud."

Yeah, that show of the Beverly Hillbillies is like the Dukes of Hazard, which was quite popular in its time. Strange how the country has changed.

The rainbow flag is an attempt by the g@ys to attack Christians and it is no coincidence that the White House showed their true colors recently.

Look for Obama to lead the charge on polygamy because if s0d0my is seen as natural by Obama, then polygamy has to be even more natural to him with his Islamic heritage.

Hillary used the confederate flag in 2008 and that may be part of why she is slowly being dumped by the Dems.

America just recognized Fidel, Raul, and Che, three of the bloodiest murderers ever in the Americas and all of the merchants are getting rich off of Che stuff.

It seems that psychopathic murderers are popular with the Dems.
