I see no problem with it, why would anyone care? besides white pride forum avatars and seeing a few white people display a sticker of said flag have you seen such a person perform a racist act while displaying said flag? curb stomping? cross burning? eat small brown children while wrapped in a rebel loincloth? it's just fabric. |

I'm proud to be American, there are things in our history that are not something to be proud of. The ideals of "the south" as represented by the rebel flag are nothing to be proud of IMO.
I can appreciate standing up against something. But I think the using the confederate flag as your symbol blows any credibility out of the water. Have your free speech, but I'm going to put anybody with a confederate flag into the dipshit category until they prove they are worthy of anything else.

do you guys realize that
90% of the people that display that flag don't know what it means 90% of people who have tribal tatoos don't know what they mean 90% of people who have a tatoo that says "power" in an aisan language, don't know that it says "dick" 90% of statistics are made up The fact is that most poeple display it because they saw it on a car and thought it was cool, and have no idea what it means. which in my mind is just stupid. The only thing that pisses me off is the order of the flags. THE AMERICAN FLAG IS ALWAYS THE HIGHEST!!!! But remember, without all the other flags that have been flown over this soil throughout history, the american flag wouldn't mean what it does.

It represents imperialist Japan and they did a lot of fucked up shit. I'm sure if you saw a Japanese homie in Japan repping that flag some Japanese people would be pretty offended. Repping it on an American car is the same thing, without knowing what it means to some people and just rocking it because it "looks cool" still makes you: IGNORANT. To fly a flag without knowing what it means, or failure to acknowledge that it is offensive to people is ignorant as well.

I don't know how I missed ESmorz post but I feel the same about that as I do the flag in question.
Why would you choose that of all symbols to represent yourself?
