Meaning waving a Confederate flag is a sufficient threat to be shot at?
They were overheard calling people n*****s. So they were using it as a form of racial intimidation

Yea...every time someone wants to kill or shoot somebody they can just claim they used the n-word...must be why we have all the black on white crime?

Actually I don't see a lot a black on white crime where I live. These two idiots drove all the way from Union City to Fulton just to go to dollar store when there are plenty of dollar stores in Union City. Now this dollar store in Fulton just happens to be in a black neighborhood. Why would you deliberately Drive 15 minutes to go to a dollar store in a black neighborhood flying your Confederate flags unless you were there specifically to cause trouble. This is why the police officer told him to go back to union city where they came from or they could go to jail.

I'm seeing alot of fork tongues in this thread. smh. Cut the grass and the snakes are revealed. It's a shame that those who call themselves Godly hold so much distain for people. For people who have done nothing to you personally. I'm glad God sees all and knows all and WE ALL must answer for every word or deed no matter what race we are. We know not what day or hour that Jesus will return. What will he catch you doing or saying?

Colossians 4:6 Let your speech [be] alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

2 Timothy 2:24-26 And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to all, able to teach, patient, in humility correcting those who are in opposition, if God perhaps will grant them repentance, so that they may know the truth, and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

We are all at different points in our walk with God. Showing someone the same Grace that God has shown to us, as none is perfect or without a fault, is a blessing. Romans 3:23 for all have sin and fall short of the glory of God.

Galatians 6:6 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

Romans 15:1 We who are strong must be considerate of those who are sensitive about things like this. We must not just please ourselves. We should help others do what is right and build them up in the Lord.

I am aware that everyone here is not a Christian but some of you who claim to be have the worst attitudes. If I didn't know the Lord if some of you are a representation of him I wouldn't want any parts of salvation. They get the same treatment in the world as they do from so called Chrisitians and that's sad.

We've got plenty of black on white crime here where I live. But not at my church though. The black men there have high integrity and a burning passion for God's holiness and gospel. Great guys, all of them.

Racism disgusts me on the level that I can never find words to express. Funny how people claim to this flag does not represent racism but then people choose to deliberately drive around in black neighborhoods waving these rebel flags.

Well if some one is "really" doing this??? that's bad and clearly they are looking to insult blacks...but many see that flag as a statement against oppressive government and as a symbol of southern culture and the more the liberals and the government try to restrict it, the more it will represent resistance to that type of oppressive government and political correctness.... Like I said before the more liberals rail against it ...the more it becomes a symbol to others.

This to me goes way to far... all over the south this is happening and it's ridiculous.... General Nathan Bedford Forrest had nothing to do with any recent racial shootings... Why not dig upall Confederate graves and put the remains in a landfill? Would that make some people happy? Why not ban the use of chains, which reminds us of slavery?... were does this stop?.. All this is nothing but history being erased, it's just the past... OWN IT!... why not emphasize how far we have come since them, not eliminate it, like it never happened... because it did people!!...

How much we choose to forget to suit our own purpose... Do they not teach history?... do you know how many African Americans owned others of their race during this time period... Hundreds... heck, they are the ones who sold their own to ship owners and plantations... People like Nicolas Augustin Metoyer of Louisiana owned 13 slaves in 1830. He and his 12 family members collectively owned 215 slaves, that one family is responsible for the buying, shipping, selling of over 3200 Africans... Black Slave Owners: Did They Exist? - The Root ...

I'm not raciest, not by a long shot... I do believe we all deserve to be treated fairly... I just get tired of all the discrimination garbage these days... Does anyone realize that there is a group out there waiting to see what happens with the law suite against the Christian publishers Zondervan and Thomas Nelson Publishing over having any biblical verses referring to gays removed from their bible printings... if they win, this other group will follow suite to have any references about slavery removed too... not surprising its the same man spearheading it... He was a blogger for the Obama administration during his first term... ‘Gay’ man sues Bible publisher for ‘mental anguish’


My question still remains Where does it stop! ...

OK, putting my soapbox back in the closet now...

More hysteria.
There's another group in the Middle East that is busy destroying history...ISIS...perhaps there's more similarities with that mindset than meets the eye.

The black areas of our nation are almost all being over ran by criminals ..blacks are being killed and are killing others on an epidemic scale....but liberals want them to think some flag is their problem as they lead them further and further into perdition.

Violating anyones personal property or person is wrong. I don't care who does it. All I am seeing is black people this and the black people that. It is not just BLACK people that have complained about the confederate flag. So why are people driving in "black" neighborhoods with the flag? STOP instigating trouble and noone should be going to anyones personal property tearing flags down. This is getting ridiculous.

There are plenty of non-blacks doing the samething. It is the injustices done by people in the name of these symbols that are wrong.

Do people even know the history behind planned parenthood or who even started it and why? Even the NAACP?


The people who help found and fund the NAACP




Come on Christian people what happened to letting our light shine so that God can be glorified? All I have been seeing is alot of vitroil and venom spreading in this thread. Then folks tell black people to get over it. Maybe if others get over it black people can. smh

You know what would be hilarious though? What if a black company were to sell Confederate flags then come out a few months later and make an announcement...

Attention white supremacists... all those black people that you hate so much? Well guess what, you just gave us your money.

So whats funny about 90, 000 black babies being murdered EVERY YEAR, by a group started by racist? I don't think that flag is the real issue facing blacks.

Or they could stop having sex ...but the fact is that black babies are being murdered and there are real issues in the black communities ..this flag issue is just to deflect from the real issues.

IT is not just in the BLACK communities. Do you know that non black people go to planned parenthood too. There are plenty of non black people on welfare and in prison. I wish people would stop acting like black people are the lowest of Gods creation. There are good and bad in all races and cultures. The media has alot to do with it too, they report whatever the people are talking about most.
