      I would be happy if they paid me to counsel them in my library. I would use an old technique from behavior modification called "flooding". I make them stand and stare at my framed 9-piece collection of Confederate Currency and make them add up the totals backwards and forwards until the tears/anguish turn into outright laughter with the realization that the paper can't hurt them, especially since it's worth far more now than when issued. LOL!?

        a sign of snowflake times... demanding attention and protection, with the excuses getting more asinine all the time.

          I blame their parents. My dad would have called me a pussy or told me to “close your fucking eyes then”. 

          My dad moved to WV from New Jersey and he just bust balls about participation awards to his buddies who have confederate flags on everything.

            My old man would have put a whuppin on me with  the belt.  The to the room.  My Grandfathers used to tell me, 'it's good to suffer'.  If you really think about it, he was right.  It teaches you things that you would never know otherwise.

              Oh wow, an article from a biased site taking parts of an event at one small university, throwing in a bunch of biased and leading language, in an attempt to get clicks from people that want to read articles that back up what they already believe while perpetuating an agenda. 

              Shocked

              But sure, this is how every university operates all of the time. So we can discredit academics. So we can discredit experts. So we can say snow means no climate change 

              That's what is being attempted. 

              Oh well

                Never do understand people defending traitors of our country. What county has killed more Americans than any other country in the world? Confederate States of America.

I was also taught about the war of northern aggression, but I took some time, thought about it and it's bullshit rewriting of history.

                          All of the Confederate love is a pretty recent thing too

                            Lynyrd Skynyrd and that whole Avalanche of southern rock was about 1970. Nobody was outraged by their album covers or the Dukes of Hazzard until recently when some idiots said it was cool to freak out over it

                                My Great Great Grandaddy fought for the south out of North Carolina.    Not really, but if I'd had my way, he would have.

                                    My Great Great Grandaddy fought for the south out of North Carolina.    Not really, but if I'd had my way, he would have.

                                    Funny thing is I actually did have a great grandfather who was in one of the last battles of the civil war. He was with a home guard Alabama unit and was captured at age 17 just as the war was ending. He was released at the end of the war shortly thereafter and made his way to Texas where he homesteaded fairly close to what is now the A&M campus. So I guess the song applies, but I'd rather we just beat 'em in football. LOL!

                                        Where you probably don't even know who The United Daughters of the Confederacy were and how they are the reason you so proud of your traitors. I was also taught about the war of northern aggression, but I took some time, thought about it and it's bullshit rewriting of history. 

                                        LOL! And maybe it's because I happen to like history and have read a great deal about it on my own. Besides it was fun teasing my grandson in his US Grant Halloween costume this year. He was very proud of it so I informed him about the taking of Vicksburg and the most brilliant move in civil war history by crossing the Mississippi below Vicksburg, taking Jackson and attacking Vicksburg from the eastern land side. It's actually possible to be proud of how I am NOT a slave owner, an idea abhorrent to me, but not to some of my ancestors. It's just history and I have some relics (Confederate money) of that history given to me by my R.I. in-laws who had a collector in the family.

                                        LOL I can be impressed with Nazi Germany Blitzkrieg tactics and how they were able to take over most of Europe. I don't see them as heroes or do I think they should be idolized. The south seceded to be able to keep on owning people. I'm sure you have read the secession letters, they don't leave a lot of room for debate. So keep on being proud of traitors to your nation, makes total sense.
