Confederate flag supporters rise up to defend embattled symbol

An eight-mile convoy of pickups, motorcycles and cars wound through a central Florida town on Sunday in a show of support for the Confederate flag, as a backlash against its banishment from public landmarks across the South picks up steam.
 
Horns blared and hundreds of the rebel flags fluttered as more than 1,500 vehicles and some 4,500 people turned out for the "Florida Southern Pride Ride" in Ocala, according to police estimates. Vehicles from states across the South and as far away as California participated.

"That flag has a lot of different meanings to a lot of different people," said David Stone, 38, who organized the event. "It doesn't symbolize hate unless you think it's hate - and that's your problem, not mine.”

  2. I have seen many articles and comments over the last weeks crowing about the "end of the racist south". I have seen just as many claiming that the actions of the left have "united pro-liberty groups in ways not seen in a century". Some few have even noted that we as a nation are now "more divided that we have been at any time since 1860" . What none of them have noticed is that the White house , the neocons , the military and the communists have gotten EXACTLY what they wanted from all this. A divided people who are at each others necks, "civil unrest" and a people so distracted by a 150 year old symbol ,"Race riots" and a return to the pre 1960's state flags, that they are no longer looking at ANYTHING ELSE. We are being herded like sheep to slaughter, while the "masters" laugh there asses off at how easy it was to distract us with military slight of hand(jade helm) symbols (they gonna ban my flag!) , and rumors. (they gonna take the guns/bibles/flags/votes). With all this effort to distract and manipulate EVERYONE; A thinking man must ask. What are they doing, have done, OR ARE ABOUT TO DO, in DC that is so evil that it is worth the very real risk of a civil war that the government KNOWS it cannot win? And the second question: Why would the "Leadership" place its collective neck in the noose NOW? Third: What has gone so wrong as to make all this imperative? Our military has been "downsized" until it is a pale shadow of what it was (smaller than ONE army group in ww2). The Military armed force in North America is in South Carolina(Blackwater) and it is under the sole control of the White house. The people have been sold on the Idea that a marginally effective semiautomatic carbine that the US military has been trying to get rid of for 40 years, is somehow a "battle rifle". Thereby rendering them effectively disarmed if they are forced to face anything more effective than a street gang. Effective munitions, explosives , the raw materials to MAKE explosives; ammunitions in quantity and even real money have all been removed from the public marketplace or outright banned to "civilians". Laws have been passed ratified and tested in the courts to end civilian rule or any "rule of law" at the whim of unknown and secret groups; They have only to be implemented. The Government has begun large scale military movements, PSYOPS ,propaganda ,and disinformation efforts to; "prepare the field" . You were an Officer and went to trade school Brock. What comes next?----Ray
