I can't even begin to quote all of the posts that just made me laugh and I agree with all of them.

I do not have such an issue with historical relics from the civil war being stored somewhere. But 90% of the Confederate flags I see are from people hooting
and hollering from their deer hunting trucks and screaming stuff about the South Will Rise Again. **shudders**

I wonder if people still hang on to Nazi Germany Flags and display them proudly as part of their heritage.

FFS. I have nothing against black people or anything. And I know the damn war ended years ago... I don't think there's anything wrong with our house
either. And I doubt you would be shot - both guns are locked up and haven't been fired in quite a while, one of them is so old my dad thinks it's best
not to fire it - which is another relic from the Civil War.

Mistress Darcy wrote: Yes, that! If something is a part of your family's history and you have it stored away, fine. I remember there was someone on here whose grandfather
fought for the Nazi army and had SO much stuff from it. As a person who loves history, I think that's interesting. And if it belongs in your family, fine
keep it. But don't like...put that shit on display. It's one thing to have a big box of Granddaddy's war memorabilia (whether it be Civil War or
WWII) and to take it out and look at it sometimes. It's quite different to throw the fucking flag on the back of your truck or your porch. |

We don't fly any flag actually... ever.
The American flags are in boxes too. |

I'm just curious. I read on another board where there was a restaurant with a familiar name to the "shucking and jiving". I did a google and
sure a restaurant called ShuckNJive does exist in Texas. I don't know what the phrase means but if what is said is true, how did these people get away
with it?
