Good for them. Hopefully they keep the spark lit until this nonsense goes away and the fire is re-lit.Quote:

Can We Please, Finally, Get Rid of ‘Aunt Jemima’?
Amid the current efforts to remove the Confederate flag as a symbol from state and federal buildings and to divest from its commercial circulation as a product and commodity, it is also important to remember that a host of products lining grocery store shelves to this day, including Aunt Jemima Pancake Mix and Aunt Jemima Syrup, are also very much linked to Southern racism.

Going? We are already there. Our country as we know it is fucked (sorry for the language). What we knew as a great nation is now gone. I guess when you elect a President...twice...who says he "wants to fundamentally change America" this is what you get. And for the record, I think that every single politician, all R's and D's and I's and G's and L's, is a criminal and will do whatever they can do to be reelected, damned the people they represent.Quote:

Apple Bans Civil War Games from App Store over Confederate Flag
Apple has pulled all games from its App Store which contain the Confederate flag. When explaining to developers why their content was banned, Apple stated it was “because it includes images of the confederate flag used in offensive and mean-spirited ways.”

I semi-agree with this. If you're stupid enough to do that when you work for a public / state office, you're in an idiot.Quote:

National Cathedral to remove Confederate stained glass
WASHINGTON — The dean of Washington National Cathedral has called for two stained-glass windows featuring Confederate flags to be taken down from the Gothic edifice, in yet another instance of institutions reconsidering countless tributes to the Southern cause.

All this ignorance is deafening. Everybody just go back to staring at your phone apps.
One of the many reasons (besides the simple fact that my life simply isn't interesting enough to broadcast much like the other 99.999% of people who do post regularly on Facebook and for some reason think theirs are) I don't mess with Facebook (or Twitter) or any other social media, for that matter. It's bad enough that prospective employers can check your credit (which is irrelevant if you work outside of accounting/finance), why give them any other reasons not to hire you?Quote:

South Carolina - "You touch OUR flag - you go to jail"
Woman removes Confederate flag from front of SC statehouse
The Confederate flag has been temporarily removed from in front of the South Carolina Statehouse.

An unidentified black woman was about halfway up the more than 30-foot steel flagpole just after dawn Saturday when State Capitol police told her to come down. Instead, she continued up and removed the flag before returning to the ground.
The woman and another man who had entered the wrought-iron fence surrounding the flag were arrested.
The flag, which is protected by state law, was raised again a short time later.

I don't care either way about the Confederate battle flag. I would never want to display one, and it's been used as a symbol of racism in modern times, but there are a lot of people who display it with no malicious intent.

Alabama flag company begins Confederate flag production in-store, over 1,000 sold on first day
After the manufacturer decided to no longer supply Confederate flags to her business, Alabama Flag and Banner owner Belinda Kennedy decided to take matters into her own hands.
Starting early Friday morning, Belinda and the employees at Alabama Flag and Banner began producing Confederate flags in-store using their own materials and equipment. And just as soon as they hit the machines, the orders came pouring in.

It's funny how everyone is against some people flying he confederate flag yet everyone wants people to fly the gay-pride flag...there's really no difference between flying the two flags...both "groups" of people should have the right and freedom to fly them.
Big Brother will decide what flag is appropriate for you to display, comrade, your thoughtcrime will be reportedQuote:
