First let me start off by saying that if I make someone mad with my blog.. Oh Well !! Like my Dad used to tell us.. You have the same pants to get glad in.
I am Not going to be policitally correct here. I don't care about all that stuff. I think that's what is wrong with this world today. I Am going to speak my mind. This is my 1st amendment right.
I AM a 6th generation Floridian. My brother has traced our family back to the 1700's. So I do have a say in flying my flags.. whether they be the American, Confederate, MIA POW. I am also a PROUD member of the Sons and Daughters of the Confederate.
I want to 1st say that if you are reading this and you are from up north.. well, there's a big black strip of asphalt called I-4, I-75, I-95, you can get on it and go back where you came from. WE DON'T CARE HOW YOU DO IT UP THERE !! That is the reason why we "southerens" are in the shape we are in now.. because you think you can come down here and tell us what we can do. And IF you are from up north.. I don't think that you have a right to say ANYTHING on this subject concerning my Hertiage.
If you are black and from the south.. that flags flyes for your hertitage too. Your ansectors fought for that flag too. Some are probably buried in Arlington Cemetary. Do you really know how Arlington Cemetary started? There is a section not many people visit there for the "C T 'S that are buried there. The C T' S stands for colored troops. You need to stop playing video games on the computer google the civil war and read why it really started. It was not about slavery. Before Abraham Lincoln.. who by the way was a REPLUBLICAN NOT a DEMOCRAT, before He signed the Emancipation - 13th Amendment the American flag embodied slavery not the Confederate Flag !! Many of the slaves after the Civil war stayed and worked. Some left but most stayed. They were Confederates like the rest of our ancestors. I am not a history major.. I have a high school diploma and a little college. History was my worse subject in school. But I do know my hertitage.
I can not believe that ya'll ( let me translate for you yankess ) you all have once again stuck your yankee noses into what we wave in and on our own property. So what.. ya'll don't like it.. is there anything that we do that ya'll do like?
Just because some organization adopted our flag and made it their own doesn't mean that all southerners are racists. I wished that they would have adopted another flag but they for some reason chose our "Stars and Bars". There are black people here that I know personally that wave their Hertitage in their yard and on their trucks, They are proud of it.
Well, I'll tell you one thing... you try coming on my property and tell me that I have to take down by Stars and Bars and I can't wave it, I'll put a musket bullet in your butt. I am that passionate about my hertiage and I am damn proud that my people gave their lives for what they believed in.
And if you do google Arlington Cemetary.. you yankees would probably go dig up your ancestors because they are buried on Robert E. Lee's property. A Confederate General. If you can't find it on google.. go to www.ask.com ya'll will see it there.
I do not know why waving a Confederate Flag bothers so many people. If they see hate in that flag then they need to look in the mirror at themselves. Because hate comes from within.
I say Fly on Stars And Bars... wave proudly in the wind. It's my heritage not hate.
