Do you have a problem with the Confederate flag?

What do YOU think the flag represents?

I don't really care about it.

On another note: That comiv is freakin' funny! :lol:

To me it represents inequality segregation and slavery, anyone who proudly wears it is also proudly flaunting their ignorance.Bad_Mofo_Gamer

Pretty much. It scares me that there are people around who show that flag and support it. I really associate it with Neo Nazis in a way...

What he said.

That flag is used for so many rascist groups(I read somewheres that it's around 500) and where I used to live the rascist people always had it on their cars and stuff. It pisses me off.

I think the flag represents division....on many levels.LJS9502_basic

Thats how I feel about it too.

I like it .It represents to me a rebel attitudedelol

I think it represents southern pride...Def_Jef88

Both seem right to me

Couldn't the same be said of the American flag?

Not so much.

The difference is the confederacy itself stood for pretty much everything bad in America....

Don't stop at one flag...try all flags then.;)

Not if you want to get vey historical because the Confederate Flag would have been the American Flag if the South had won the civil war

Still dosn't change that fact you could make a huge list of things America has done and they say "see this is what their flag represents". I just feel people are to quick to jump and call the flag racist.

No...the south was fighting to succeed from the Union. Thus, there would have been two flags...not one.

Ok I knew it was one of them, my mistake. My opinion about the flag still stands

Personally, I don't like it. But, nothing I can do about it. Just roll my eyes at those people and move along.LukeAF24

Awww, you don't wanna change their opinion? :roll:

This.

im gonna use the logic shown in this topic to make a judgment about the american flag, to me the american flag represents blood shed and tears that were shed for a meaningless war, it represents government corruption and government cover up, and over all it represents a commercialized society where people care more about money then they do moral, this is supposed to be a time where things are supposed to be more advanced and easier, but yet more people are homeless then ever before, more people die for meaningless reasons, this isnt a step forward, this is a step backwards and a shamefull one at that 

The official symbol of the KKK.

I have this bumper sticker...

If you want to get into problems we have here in the US, I think the big issue is the lack of care for our fellow Americans. We tend to be viewed as such a patriotic country, yet it seems people really don't give a **** about their fellow Americans. If you want proof, try and raise taxes. You will get objections all over. Here in Michigan, we SHOULD be raising taxes to start putting up new institutions for the mentally ill (which I may remind you severely mentally ill people account for the majority of the homeless.). It is pathetic that we just threw so many people on the streets who needed nothing more than help with their head.

Public mental health institutions are a Godsend. They are the only way most people can get help. Here in Michigan you either have to be rich, have incredible insurance, or okay insurance that is willing to send you when you are on the brink of disaster but will discharge you as soon as you are semi-stable. I believe to get into an eating disorder clinic my friend actually has to be below a certain weight.....

They should have never been taken down in the first place. But as mentioned God forbid we spend money on anything useful. I guess we are just gonna have to continue blowing all our money on useless military expeditions. Guess thats just eh American way....

What do YOU think the flag represents?

Ilived

I don't like it. I think it represents hate, and is a subtle way to show your contempt for blacks.
