baddog Posted July 6, 2015 Report Posted July 6, 2015 Back on topic.....most people viewed the show to get a glimpse of Daisy in her Daisy Dukes, not to drink beer and scream that the south's gonna do it again. How about some of you just put on your man pants and grow up. Hagar and BS Wildcats 2 Quote

How about some of you just put on your man pants and grow up. But it has a battle flag of Tennessee displayed prominently throughout the show, so it has to spew hate and racism. Quote
Hagar Posted July 6, 2015 Report Posted July 6, 2015 Yep, ol Daisy was pretty as a speckled eared pup. Quote

BS Wildcats Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Posted July 7, 2015 Just saw this and thought it interesting about TV Land. George Jefferson used racial slur honky 21 times in one season of The Jefferson's. Never a racist one uttered ever on the Dukes. Jefferson's not canceled. Go figure Quote
BLUEDOVE3 Posted July 7, 2015 Report Posted July 7, 2015 No problem with that statement. Same rebel spirit that carried over to the south.....hence the "Rebel" flag. Since blacks seem to think this flag represents slavery of the south, what flag represented the slavery of the north? Oh yeah. There were slaves in the north. A huge fact overlooked out of necessity.What time period are you referring to the north having slaves. 1990's 1870's 1860's, 1850's, etc? Quote
thetragichippy Posted July 7, 2015 Report Posted July 7, 2015 New Jersey was the last state up North to end slavery in 1865......same year as the South. Quote

stevenash Posted July 8, 2015 Report Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) SInce the Federal government provides headstones/markers for Confederate Soldiers as well as Union Soldiers, are we going to have to remove the Confederate Soldier headstones since it might be "offensive" to some to have had that done with taxpayer dollars?

stevenash Posted July 8, 2015 Report Posted July 8, 2015 You cant erase it but you can darn sure attempt ( as many are) to re-write it Quote
Hagar Posted July 8, 2015 Report Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Been many years since I read 1984, but isn't this bordering on:We had no Civil War. We never fought the South, therefore there is no Confederate flag. If you've read it, you get the idea. If you haven't, you really should. A piece of fiction that is storming into reality.

thetragichippy Posted July 9, 2015 Report Posted July 9, 2015 Well, here is the Confederate Flag.... They are taking down a BATTLE flag...... but most will think it's the Confederate Flag.....Since the CNN poll claimed 57% of America thought of the battle flag as heritage, I'm curious to see what happens at election time.....
