Dove, there are four Military bases in this country that are named after Confederate Generals.  These are Bragg, Hood, Pickett, and Hill.  Should there be a demand that these bases be renamed Ft. Caitlin,( as in Jenner)  Fort Sam ( as in Michael), Ft. Dolezal, and Ft. Belafonte?

​Hmmm? Were they patriots or traitors?

Nash, Its been a discussion for years.. I think we all can admit the "opportunity" to bring this issue back to the national forefront is now. Before we all get back comfortable again and be in denial about our race issues. 

​What flag a state flies has nothing to do with the national forefront...it's the business of those in THAT state.

The south people forget that the south we're traitors to this nation and choose to spill blood and succeed from this nation why is we honoring them in any way. They don't deserve nothing nothing at all. They we're not heros. Says a lot about the south that in 2015 they're still those who think the should be honored they ain't fight for this nation they tried to kill it.

Cant help but wonder why , in 1987, Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton( with Hillary by his side) signed Act 116 that stated " The blue star above the word ARKANSAS, is to commemorate the Confederate States of America

​You may get no comment from the left on this one...they will, however, still vote for hillary.

​So, you were against the Feds stepping in and disrupting the Jim Crow laws?

​LOL...I don't think you believe I meant that for a second.

But so I am sure you get it...No, the Feds were absolutely right to step in because individual rights were being abused/denied.

That is something no state (or any other gov) has the right to do...not here, anyway.

What difference it makes who agree with it or not is that suppose to change anything why make this about dems or Republicans. The flag should come down you do not let your enemy keep waving it's flag.

​So who would you have make this call?

Should the fed gov step and tell a sovereign state what flag they can fly?

Personally, you can hang your confederate flag in your yard, boat, horse carriage, or in  Billy Bob Saloon. 

Why remove it, because you associate it with racism and slavery.  Sounds like you are as misinformed as millions is others as well as our ignorant govt. leaders.

    • What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
    • Sorry sir on my miss count. I was in hurry
    • Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita. 
    • I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
