Bessemer man says Confederate flag made him a target

Via Billy

HouseShooting

A Bessemer man says his home is under fire.  He says a drive-by shooting left his house riddled with bullet holes, putting his family in danger. He believes the Confederate battle flag he flies on his porch could be the reason behind the shooting.

Alek Seundryk says he woke up to the sound of gunshots just after midnight Sunday. “I heard three gunshot pops. Three pops. Very loud,” he said.

Kayla Buckner, his neighbor, says she saw what happened. She was standing outside, near the home on Avenue J in Bessemer. She says she saw a car approach the house, then slow down. “They stopped and conversated. He said naw man, eff that, and shot into their house,” Buckner said.

  1. Why argue the Confederate cause 150 years after surrender? Why are Confederate principles and values important to the preservation of American liberty? Constitutional issues surrounding the secession of the Southern states; Lincoln’s destructive and brutal suppression of secession; criminal, corrupt, and immoral reconstruction policies; and post 1865 constitutional amendments are fundamental to understanding the erosion of liberty and expansion of Federal power.
    The other facet is the Lincoln myth. The metamorphosis of a shrewd partisan operative into a national demigod sanctified violation of the constitution as acceptable. If the great and good Abe Lincoln did it, it must be right. Former New York governor Mario Cuomo defended an unconstitutional act by referring to Lincoln’s expedient violations of the constitution. If Lincoln’s gross violations of the constitution are justified, that gives a pass to later presidents, congress, and federal courts to do the same.
    If Lincoln and the Union cause in the War for Southern Independence are axiomatically right, then all arguments for Limited Federal Government and strict adherence to the constitution will eventually fail. Those who believe that the constitutional compact of limited government is the essential characteristic of American liberty realize that freedom is not guaranteed by a taxing, regulating, and war-mongering government. A vigorous defense of the Confederate cause as among the purest expressions of true American liberty and patriotism is essential. The founding fathers saw the constitution as a contract between the states, not a sacred blood oath binding one to obedience to a national regime. Modern day liberals and conservatives both promote the use of federal force and confiscation to achieve their goals.
    Subsequent history has shown that our Confederate ancestors were right; the modern central government is a swollen monstrosity, with its tentacles grasping into every aspect of our lives. The constitutionally limited government of the Founding Fathers died at Appomattox Virginia on April 9, 1865. Abraham Lincoln broke the original constitution and bill of rights and changed America from a Republic to a Socialist Democracy. Day by day America is becoming a Socialist police state.

  2. The Confederate flag represents honor, faith, courage, dignity, integrity, chivalry, Christian values, respect for womanhood, strong family ties, patriotism, self- reliance, limited constitutional federal government, states rights, and belief in the free enterprise system. It symbolizes the noble spirit of the Southern people, the rich heritage, the traditions of the South and the dynamic and vigorous southern culture. No other symbol so proudly says “ Dixie ” as the Cross of St. Andrew (Confederate Battle Flag) waving in the breeze. Liberals have falsely indoctrinated many black Americans to believe it represents racism, bigotry, and a painful reminder of slavery. But white Christian Southerners who fly the Confederate Battle Flag are not the enemy of responsible Black Americans who are working to better themselves.
    The Confederate flag is the last flag to represent the concept of local control of ones' life in America. In a larger sense it represents the same values and principles as the original U.S. Betsy Ross Flag: Limited Constitutional Federal Government, States Rights, Resistance to Tyranny, and Christian Principles and Values. Thus it represents "government of the people, by the people, and for the people with the consent of the governed".
    The Confederate flag is an internationally recognized symbol of resistance to tyranny. Poland chose it as the symbol for the Solidarity movement in 1981 against Russian Communism. And that is why it was flying over the Berlin Wall when it was being torn down in 1989 and has been flown by numerous countries or provinces seeking independence.
    It reminds knowledgeable Americans that government is to be held accountable for its actions, and if those actions are viewed as not being in the best interest of the people, there is a price to be paid for it. This fact has not been lost upon the Socialist, Communist, liberal left and that is why they have spent inordinate amounts of money and energy trying to suppress this powerful symbol of freedom. The Confederate battle flag is a Christian symbol and that is why proponents of Secular Humanism oppose it.
    The flag also represents the valor and sacrifice of our Southern ancestors in their quest to gain independence and recognition as a sovereign nation. Confederate soldiers displayed tremendous bravery in the face of overwhelming odds against the Northern armies that invaded the South. The Confederate flag is and shall remain the flag of the region Southerners call home-the Southland. We are Americans but we are also proud Southerners.

  3. The Socialist-Communist liberal left (aka Democratic Party) supported by New World Order (One World Government) proponents is leading the attack and crusade against the South and Confederate symbols, because we are the most Christian Conservative part of America, with the goal of converting America to Totalitarian Socialism and Secular Humanism. The nationwide attack on Christianity and promotion of homosexuality is part of this crusade. The Confederate Battle Flag is the most visible and highest profile emblem of the conservative South and the protector of the values and principles represented by the original U.S. Betsy Ross flag: limited constitutional Federal government, states rights, resistance to tyranny, and Christian values. The CSA flag is an international symbol of resistance to tyranny. It was chosen by Poland in 1981 as the symbol for the Solidarity movement. It was also flown over the Berlin wall as it was being torn down in 1989. Therefore the CSA flag and the freedom it symbolizes is "a thorn in the side" of the radical fanatical left.
    To understand the origins and power wielded by the Socialist left in America it is necessary to connect the dots of history back to 1848 and 1865 and forward to the present. Abraham Lincoln was both a Socialist and Atheist and a pen pal with European Socialist Karl Marx. After the failed 1848 Socialist revolution in Europe Marx sent about 2000 mostly German Socialists to New York City. They joined with American Socialists to form the Republican Party in 1854. The New York Tribune newspaper published 487 of Karl Marx's articles including the Communist Manifesto. Within six years they had figured out how to start a war and blame the South. Ft. Sumter was a set up by Lincoln just as later U.S. president LBJ used the Gulf of Tonkin incident to get America into the Viet Nam war.
    The goal of the Republican Party was to convert the Republic established by America's founding fathers to a Socialist Democracy. The CSA surrendered in 1865 and their goal was achieved. Socialism had advanced over the following 150 years. The Democratic Party switched roles with the Republican party and Socialism infiltrated America's institutions of higher learning in the 1920's and was advanced by FDR in the 1930's and LBJ in the 1960's and Obama has brought America closer to Totalitarian Socialism promising to fundamentally "Change America".
    The irrational reactions of the news media, politicians, and much of the American public against the Confederate flag is reminiscent of the aftermath of the Pearl Harbor attack that ushered America into World War II. Beautiful Japanese Cherry trees along an avenue in Washington D.C. were cut down as if they had something to do with the attack.
    The attacks by the left will not end with removal of the Confederate flag. Attacks have already begun against the U.S. flag-the Stars and Stripes". The flag stomping in Valdosta GA., calls by radical left extremist Louis Farrakan for removal, refusal to display in areas inhabited by recent immigrants etc. are examples. The left knows the U.S. flag flew over slave ships, near extermination of Native American Indians, the Mexican war of 1847, recent Iraq war etc. If you are a patriotic American that loves and supports our country and Constitution and Bill of Rights you should support both the CSA flag and the USA flag because our enemies have endangered the flying of both.

  6. Lincoln's law partner William S. Herndon is the source of some of the most private information concerning Lincoln. After Lincoln's death he wrote a book "A Great Life". Only about 12 of the original copies remain. Lincoln supporters bought them up and destroyed them. Herndon wrote a 2nd edition that deleted facts the Lincoln cult did not want people to know.
    Lincoln wrote a book espousing Atheism. A friend grabbed it and threw it in the fire saying "you will never get elected to anything if that book gets published".
    Lincoln also told Herndon numerous times he was illegitimate. He was the son of South Carolinian John C. Calhoun and bar maid Nancy Hanks of Craytonville south Carolina. Calhoun paid hog drover Thomas Lincoln $500 to take her to her uncles house in Kentucky. Lincoln was born at the plantation of Abraham Enloe on the way to Kentucky. Lincoln's mother Nancy had a hard life with Thomas Lincoln and died early. Abe never forgave him and refused to visit Thomas when he was dying. Between 1900 and 1910 a child support document was found in the Abbeville SC. courthouse signed by Calhoun paying $100 per year child support.
    Emperor Napoleon of France said "History is an accepted fable" and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill said "History is basically bunk". Northern Yankee historians who are part of the Lincoln cult that keeps the mythical Lincoln lies alive just know in their heart that you and the rest of the indoctrinated American public just do not need to know the things I have related above to you.
    Kennedy and Benson recently did a tremendous amount of research which resulted in the book "Red Republicans and Lincoln Marxists". Get a copy and read it. Lincoln's Assistant Secretary of War Charles Anderson Dana was an avowed Socialist who went to Europe before the war and met Karl Marx. 487 of Marx's articles including the Communist manifesto were published in the New York Tribune newspaper before the war. Marx sent about 2000 European Socialists to New Your City in 1849-1850 after the failed Socialist revolution in Europe. And Marx sent thousands of Socialists to America to fight for Lincoln 1861-1865. I have the names of these Socialists and Communists A thru Z who were Yankee officers.
    Adolph Hitler was an admirer of Lincoln and devoted a chapter of his book "Mein Kampf" to Lincolns methods used to destroy the Republic established by America's founding fathers and convert America to a Socialist Democracy. The U.S. Communist Party held Lincoln-Lenin parades in New York City in the 1930's. They sent troops to fight for Socialism in the Spanish Civil War of 1937 and called them the Lincoln Brigade.
    The pastors in Springfield Illinois did not and would not vote for Lincoln--they knew what he was. After the defeat and surrender of the South in 1865 Marx sent a letter of congratulations to Lincoln.
    Do google searches on your computer. Enter "Abraham Lincoln Socialist" and "Abraham Lincoln Atheist" and read all about it. It is no longer a secret that "Dishonest Abe" was both a Socialist and Atheist.

  7. If you are going to fly it with pride, then be prepared to defend it.

    Being a Rebel is more than flying a flag.

  8. IGNORANT people who denounce the Confederacy are probably unaware of the Slave Narratives. In 1934-36 during the FDR administration as part of WPA over 2000 old former slaves were interviewed and their stories recorded. Virtually all spoke of the kind treatment by former masters and the good times prior to the war. But ignorant South-Confederacy haters believe slaves were constantly abused.
    From 1440 to 1870 there were 52,400 ship voyages to Africa to acquire and transport slaves. How many of these ships flew the Confederate flag or the flag of any Southern colony/state? Answer 0. Early on the slavers were Spanish, Portuguese, English, French, and Dutch. Then America got in the slave business. There were state owned and private owned fleets of ships by 6 American colonies/states-Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, New York, and Maine. The abuse was by African slave catchers and on the cramped European and Yankee ships. Once they got to the South most were treated fairly and some so well they considered themselves above poor whites. Many were like family members.
    GEE aren't these facts inconvenient to the emotional feelings and belief that slavery was totally a Southern thing? Massachusetts was the 1st colony to legalize slavery by statute in 1641. The pilgrims began enslaving Indians immediately upon arrival in 1620. In the South 3 to 7 year indentured servitude existed from 1607-1654. The father of Southern slavery was a black man-Anthony Johnson-do a Google search. He went before the courts of Virginia (English Courts) in 1654-55 and was granted lifetime ownership of John Casor another black.
