There are MANY post that I want to respond to - but, I won't...
Way back when the Mike Vick story broke - and this was eluded to earlier in the thread - dog fighting, a rising problem in the South was a way of life. Unfortunately, Mr. Vick, bank rolled and participated in this activity AND he was arrested, charged and served his time for this crime.
Here's what I want to know - and I really think I know the answer already; but, if someone is brave enough to reply then let's hear it...For all of you who are upset with the signing of Mike Vick, because of his disgusting Southern lifestyle - WHAT ARE YOUR FEELINGS ON THE REBEL FLAG that continues to fly and is being purchased "because that's just how we were"???
Both of these topics can easily be tied together and if you despise ONE---then without a doubt---you should despise the other.
Discuss.
I am all for removing rebel flags from every public entity...as far as other people flying them we have first amendment rights in this country. But to compare displaying a rebel flag (or a Nazi flag or a Satanic flag or an ISIS flag or any other offensive visual material you can think of) with actually torturing and executing living creatures, is ridiculous.
