Sims is the idiot who had the exhibit "The Proper Way To Hang A Confederate Flag" at Gettysburg.

So much for graveyard visits to honor America’s war dead, or even summery barbecues in the backyard – an activist from Florida has what he thinks is a better way to recognize the solemn occasion known as Memorial Day: burn flags.

John Sims from southern Florida is leading up a nationwide effort to change Memorial Day into Confederate flag-burning day, Think Progress reported. Just a few weeks ago, he organized 13 separate flag-burning events in the 13 states formerly known as the Confederacy, telling the International Business Times in the process that “the Confederate flag is the N-word on a pole.”

  1. Slavery is a biblical law. There are many laws concerning how to deal with slaves. See the laws of slavery in Maimonides. It is a whole book. And the laws of the Bible are forever. There is nothing to indicate that the laws were temporary. The very last of the prophets Malachi ends his prophecy with "Remember the Law of Moses." The whole idea that the Law can be abridged when it says openly that it is forever is ridiculous. There is certainly nothing immoral about it.

      Just as they treat the Constitution.

  2. I was thinking that this might be part of the reason that the Virgina SCV people aren't decorating CSA graves today - - threat of desecration, combined with inability to purchase sufficient quantities of Confederate flags.

    1. you can buy a gross of grave size flags for $25. Though these are plastice, the last I bought in cloth were about $35. & money should be no problem as the Virginia Flaggers are constantly putting up huge flags that have been donated as long as the land given or leased. They just better get off their sweet butts! :)

  3. As a life long Yankee, I continue to be angered by the bigotry and intolerance of the progressives toward the South. They have scapegoated a flag and our shared history, choosing to deal with both in a manner that Orwell so precisely predicted and one that totalitarians everywhere could applaud (malign,vilify,rewrite and repeat).

  4. Vile, just plain vile. We now live in a de facto police state. Our LEOs carry military issue weapons, and wear military style clothing. If you want to fly, you now have to wait in a long line to prove you are not a terrorist. Woe unto you if you don't have the proper papers on you. You are now spied upon all the time, and under the camera's eye every where you go. And they all have this in common, the stars and stripes flag attached to their uniforms.
    Some thing tells me that this vermin is full of himself and his hate, that he will never let a small detail like the facts get in the way of idiotology. If we are going to burn flags let us start with the ISIS black flag, and the perverts rainbow flag. If he were to do that, I'd would just to show that there were no hard feeling by the first round.

      Precisely. We'll have to kill only 50,000,000 this time to make Communism successful............
