Bro, I feel ya and everything, trust.... but that simply aint how you came at me tho. If you woulda said what you just said above and did that from jump street, we'd have gotten to this point sooner.
And I mean this point...
Fuck that flag. It don't mean shit to me, I don't care if people fly it or if they don't. Maybe you missed my point, but yo I don't think the car on The Dukes of Hazard meant anything racist, they simply named the car after General Lee. I'm guessing that means that just using the flag to reference a historical figure doesn't mean that you're about the hatred and lynching that some people associate it with. You follow?
To be real, a few words to people still living in a past that they never lived in, how about considering the present first? Yo, like none of us here ever been through slavery...we never owned slaves or been slaves but we bitching about a confederate flag? forreal?
go look at some of the middle eastern children scorched by Obama's drone strikes and see how quickly you feel like banning the American Flag as well as the Nobel Peace Prize as symbols of hate and suffering.
All this shit is about how you look at things, having a confederate flag isn't going to bring slavery back. I don't care if people collect Nazi flags, it was part of history. Shit means different things to different folks, but I ain't never been through slavery and I don't know anybody who can tell me about it.
Fair enough?
