blacks have more priviliges and stuff gave to them now more than ever,so flying the confederate flag is just a way we say kiss our a**

You do realize that comments like this reflect poorly on me because I defend the flag?

Oh, and Dev, if you are into economics, there is an interesting discussion going on which changed my paradigm quite a bit. After reading the statement, you can guess what I thought. But after reading the comments, my opinion changed. People can change via civil discussion, sometimes you have to use $5 words to do so.

Yes, some are ignorant ranting and raving, but read the ones with the better sentence structure. Not all white PhDs (the board is have internet idiots and half clark medal finalists [clark medal = best economist under 40] are racist I guess....maybe when I get mine, I won't be either

I am not a redneck.

I do, however, have close friends that are and are quite proud of it. Nothing wrong with being a redneck as it is usually indicative of a hard-working SOB who cares more for his family and his friends than most any other kind of person you could think of.

I married someone from the other side of the freggin' planet, btw...and we weren't related UNTIL we got married.

You lose.
