Uh....don't recall saying anything about hating anyone but...thanks for the advice. I find it amusing that we can "add" or subtract something from God's word.

I have seen literature that stated that the relationship between master and slave was not often as bad as it is made out to be. I am sure that was true in some cases and in other cases there were absolutely instances of severe abuse. The difference is, the worst cases of abuse were held up as normal behavior by the northern abolitionist propaganda machines. Just like with anything else, I think you have to think about it in a historical context. Back then, just as today, the "media" is really only interested in broadcasting information that supports their own viewpoints rather than being impartial.

The institution of Slavery was dieing on the vine in the Southern State at the outbreak of the War. In fact, the Confederate Constitution expressely prohibited the further importation of Slaves from outside the exisiting states of the Confederacy. I believe that the founders of that nation saw the writing on the wall and were agreeable to letting Slavery die of natural causes in the South just as it had done throught the rest of the world during the past century. That war was NOT about slavery.

However, I don't know which literature you are speaking of directly but if it was from a viewpoint that Slavery was not the foundation for the war, I support it wholeheartedly. If it was from the standpoint that slavery should be reinstituted then I condemn it and can see how it would be viewed as racist but frankly, I've never seen any brochure that said something as abhorrent.

Thats fine. I choose to find the Confederate flag a venerated symbol of my heritage and resistance to Federal encroachment upon the rights of the states. I also fly it as a statement of opposition to Hamiltonian Federalism. I do this too...whether people like it, or not.

Auburnmom,

I appreciate your willingness to stand up for what is right! Give them an earful and let them know that stealing is bad enough but stealing from the honored dead is just disgusting beyond words!

I certainly hope other folks see what is wrong with that! This website exists to make people aware of what that flag really stands for! NASCAR is just pandering to the "Politically Correct" crowd who has decided it is popular and appropriate to denigrate the Confederate Flag and the cause for which it really stood. We are heading full tilt down a slippery slope, pretty soon we won't be allowed to display the Stars and Stripes either because it offends someone because their ancestors were from England and that is a flag that fought against their ancestors country. The PC movement is single handedly destroying everything this country was founded upon.

Basically, NASCAR wouldn't allow a car that had a Confederate Flag on it to race. Even when that flag was part of the logo of the car's sponsors.

Hello Roger,

No, unfortunately I don't. Let me know if you ever track some down. I'd be interested in getting some myself.

Thanks for reading
