April is Confederate History Month. If you listen real close, you can hear the
hissing from libtards throughout the country.
Many look upon the antebellum South as a bunch of slave owners whipping
and raping their Uncle and Aunt Toms.
The truth is only a small segment of the population owned slaves,
including some freedmen and Indians.
To demonstrate the intolerance of the social stigmatizers,
we look to Raleigh, North Carolina. This
is the sesquicentennial of the War of Northern Aggression. A confederate flag was to hang in the capital
until April 2015, when federal troops began their occupation. Now you’d think the statist would celebrate
the symbolism of a federal takeover of a sovereign state. You’d be wrong.
North Carolina NAACP president the
Rev. William Barber was shocked Friday when he was shown a photo of the flag by
the AP.
“He is right that it has a
historical context,” Barber said. “But what is that history? The history of
racism. The history of lynchings. The history of death. The history of slavery.
If you say that shouldn’t be offensive, then either you don’t know the history
or you are denying the history.”
Barber couldn’t immediately be
reached Friday night, after the decision to take down the flag.
Mr. Barber should rethink his
stance on the symbolism of the confederate flag hanging in the state
capital. He like many other progressives
can celebrate the death of federalism, while looking down their noses at southern whites at
the same time.

Mr. Barber If that is the case then the American flag needs to be removed to
