154. Where to start...
To put this argument into perspective its like saying "if that fellow newyorican had any stones he wouldn't put that Kerry yard sign in his window, but rather would drive 2000 miles and put it up on the white house lawn."

1) New York is not 2000 miles from Washington.

2) A Kerry sign does not represent slavery, oppression or treason.

Did you do that?

3) No, I did not break the law and trespass at 1600 Penn Ave.

Also IMO displaying the Confederate Battle Flag does not make you a racist.

4) I did not say displaying the flag makes one racist, I leave wide open the option of being ignorant as hell.

Some racist groups have chosen to adopt the flag as one of their symbols just like the cross has been taken as a symbol of the KKK, doesn't mean that all of those 500million plus Christians in the world are racist and evil

5) The Cross does not represent slavery, oppression or treason to those "500million plus Christians" does it? That's because real Christians stood up and denounced those racist idiots and reclaimed their symbol. Something the fools that display the stars and bars never did. They just hang that POS flag up with a shit-eating grin and a wink-n-nod to the KKK (or they're incredibly ignorant).
