There are some folks down here that are racist, but aren't they everywhere you go ? We are considered racist only because of two things, the civil war, which by the way had nothing to do with slavery, and the stupid KKK, if they would have never used our rebel flag for their racist purposes, we would probably still have it today. The rebel flag was used in the civil war, but it didn't represent slavery, like everyone is taught in school. Just think about it for a minute. The south was rebeling against the north, because the government was trying to force us to rejoin the union. So there you have the reason for the name " rebel flag ".
Anyway we are not the backwoods dum-dums that everyone sees us as, a little different, yeah, but I wouldn't have it any other way !
Thanks for thats words.For first time I got a new scope about south.You said the KKK used the south flag for racist purpose, why nobody had said nothing about it? I understand Lincoln was unfair with the south because he cut off the slavery without consideration about the chaos or terrible consequence that the farmer had to have when they had look for a crew to work the fields.Remember, no illegal immigration for that time you can find to substitute the slaves.
