"It always Bananarama! me off when the limited intellect doo-gooders claim the South as all about Slavery when less than 1% of the South owned Slaves and President Lincolns own Wife owned them. Lincoln himself planned to ship all the coloured to the Caribbean Islands after winning the war but by then they where broke so that idea was shelved. "
Yea ya know what our own government has buried that ,and is not in any of our history books, and I my self did not find out until I went to the Caribbean , saw it in a museum of all places ,a whole area dedicated to what might have happened, I came home told people , none, I mean none had ever heard of such a thing.
So yes we have been told to hate this flag,for one reason, and I keep saying to some of my south hating mates that they have been mis informed.
It is a battle flag that Gen. Lee used, I always liked the flag for the only reason is is kind of a cool flag compared to all the other flags,I never attached to slavery,racism .
It was just the rebel thing I liked,still feel like a bit of a rebel
