    He is serious.
    I suspect he was anal probed one too many times at the airport.

    I guess General Hood who led the Texas Brigade is also a traitor. We better petition the US Army to change the name of Fort Hood. No traitor should get the largest fort in the US named after him.

    Even though I personally do not like the confederate flag for numerous reasons, I just find it funny that this is what is coming out of the Charleston shooting.

    I'm guessing this is mostly state flag merchandise from states that use the rebel flag, because I have never seen the rebel flag at a Walmart here in Texas.

    I always see "Heights looking people" at that Walmart.

    I even saw Seth Payne there one time.

    They can take away their white trash flags, it will still be easy enough for me to spot which human beings I know I'm significantly better than.

    technically he was a traitor against the united states, but walmart is not selling his picture for $195.22.

    and all the clicks generated from me posting the link raised the price of the robert e. lee print to $196.22...i better get a cut of that!

    ive never understood why people would want to display and celebrate the flag of a bunch of treasonous losers.

    No he wasn't. His state seceded *peacefully*; thus, he was no longer part of the US. Traitors don't get US Army Forts named after them. Further, traitors get executed. No one got executed or even tried, because the two sides agreed to a peaceful end. Lee never would have signed at Appomattox had they said all confederate soldiers were going to get tried for treason.

    Are you trying to say Civil Wars are illegal? That's pretty naive, and is misuse of the word "Traitor" imo.

    Let's please not get into a debate about whether men who fought to keep their right to rape, whip, buy and sell other human beings were traitors or patriots.

    all i know is that its a good thing for lee and your boy hood that they did not pull that secession stunt on andrew jackson. he would not have let them off as easy as that hippie lincoln did.

    also, they raised the price of the general lee canvas print another 20 cents! it is now a whopping $196.46. when i originally posted the link it was only $195.22.

    this is how we fight symbols of racism and oppression...by clicking on ads and jacking up the price of this stuff and making it more expensive for rednecks to buy.

    we truly are fighting the good fight here clutchfans...pat yourselves on the shoulder for taking a bold and tangible stand against racism!
