The Black Family Reunion?  Yeah, the food is pretty good.

What does your post have to do with Tyr having to spend time with his sister?

The NAACP was founded by an alliance of white and black people. I was not aware you had to be black to be an officer in it. In any case the NAACP is not part of the government so not really relevant to wanting to take the Confederate Flag off government buildings.

Her little 'black people are so privileged!' rants kind of remind me of this:



So she is certainly getting into the spirit of the Confederate Flag.

Haven't seen her in almost 30 years, so little danger of that happening.

The absence of your moderating influence in her life is apparent.

Long sentence, but seems grammatically correct.

Not a complete sentence after the semicolon. :nerd:

I love the fact that the hard-working, tax-paying "White Man" in that poster is about to chop into his foot with his axe when he splits that log.  :P

I don't actually understand what is being stated here.  Judging from the first sentence the author does not have a strong grasp on the difference between government communications and private organizations.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I'm guessing it's more about the flag purge in general, including the silly excesses like the Apple Store game ban, revoking the license to manufacture the General Lee toy car, and vandalizing private property where the flag is flown.

If we are to purge something, let it be treason.
