    Ought to be hard at work seeking to ban the Rainbow Flag since the Roanoke shooter was gay.

    I mean this *has* to happen, right?

    Does the rainbow flag have the history that the confederate flag did? Was the rainbow flag institutionally flown over a group of oppressed and enslaved people? And I thought it was a cool flag and maybe we could just forget about the past and let it fly, but then i"m not black and live on streets in the south still named after some of the most utterly heinous human beings that walked this land. I would rather them have dropped some of the statues, streets and various other honoraries of some truly despicable human beings no matter the era...than drop the flag. Would have liked to see them take a mulligan on that flag and start over with it....but that wasn't my call and frankly my, or anyone else's opinion here, doesn't matter.

    When the rainbow flag ever comes to symbolize oppression and enslavement i'll be all for it to be taken down.

      I got it. Blaming a flag, even the confederate flag is stupid and pointless.

      Side note I went to the erie county fair two weeks ago and the confederate flag was everywhere. The black people didn't seem all that offended.

      and what would you have thought if they did seem offended?

      I wasn't wearing it so it's not my problem. Ohio was a union state and I'm an ohioan.

        Slavery was a poor institution but your characterization of southerners as some of the most heinous people that walked this earth is pretty naive and just plain out wrong. History is absolutely filled with much more atrocious ways of being than the South even during the height of slavery.

              No.

              The gay flag should be banned by the mere fact that it's so fuckin gay. Kinda like Cleve.

                If your last statement were true dickhead, then you could call any flag flying today belonging to a nation that participated in slavery "a symbol of oppression", including the stars and stripes.

                Go ahead, tell me I'm bad at reading comprehension again.

                  Fuck the 'it symbolized oppression'. The Confederacy is long DEAD... its the flag of nothing. A dead nation, it represents no peoples.

                    "some" southerners cysko. Some of the people that still have streets named after them and statues erected of them in national parks are indeed some of the most contemptible people by any era's standards, that this country has put out.

                                gets emotionally caught up in different subjects until he

                                can pretend he does.

                                  "some" southerners cysko. Some of the people that still have streets named after them and statues erected of them in national parks are indeed some of the most contemptible people by any era's standards, that this country has put out.

                                  Go drive down MLK Jr blvd in *every* town in the country, and it's a fucking war zone.

                                  Who streets are named after don't mean a fucking thing, you stain.

                                    Later, Rock gives advice to anyone who finds themselves lost on an MLK-named street: “Run! Run! Run!”

                                    Not taking sides on which flag offends which person---I really don't give a fuck.

                                    I just think that Chris Rock is funny.
