first, Prince Harry was lynched by media for it and then forced to attend sensitivity "training".
I have an issue w/the confederate flag on KNOWN racists/separatists cars and homes! they have the same meaning as the German swastika does to jews: "you are not welcome here". but now there are movies to glamorize the flag (Dukes of Hazzard). and there is NOTHING blacks or anyone can say, nor is the media lynching anyone for PROUDLY displaying it. the states of Alabama & So. Carolina now have special "confederate" license plates just for separatists - they are clearly not for blacks but to remind of and embrace when slavemasters ruled!
to them, the flag is a "cute symbol of history", well, if you think lynching blacks, segregation/whites only, discrimination, arson, home and church bombings, rape, maiming and torture, and not a law to protect you are all cute.
and there's never a regard for how the poor and disenfranchised are insulted daily!
well, I'm going as a hot Nazi chick next year, or hell one day next week: black hot pants, doc martens, Hitler army shirt tied in bow at waste w/bra showing, Hitler army hat and a small whip in hand w/swastika on my arm. and I don't give a fuck how Hitler felt about blacks, he's not running my country! see me if you have a problem w/costume because I will surely explain the history of British rule racism in America and HOW it's long outlasted Hilter's rule and has been far more brutal (the 2-3 month boat ride from Africa in the non-ventilated bottom of ship laid out like slabs of meat to rot which was as brutal as the packed trains to Auschwitz, 100 million slaves killed during slave trade, slaves tortured daily, raped, families sold apart, identities and language stripped, denied right to read or write, housed/fed worse than the masters' dogs - remaining historic plantation homes still display the horror, and a helluva lot more AND ALL FOR OVER 240 years and allowed to only say "yes ma'am' or "thank you, sir" in response)
as for those claiming offended by costume, grow a backbone will ya! blacks, native indians, spanish americans, chinese and japanese did. Hitler is dead and WWII is over. by continuing to complain about the swastika or any Nazi image, continues to give all power to Hitler.
piss me off further and I'm changing last name legally to Hitler.
