It seems like those who celebrate southern heritage tend to only celebrate 4 particular years (1861-1865). You never see them celebrating Nat Turner Day. Nat was a Southerner who died fighting for freedom. A true hero.
Turner murdered about five dozen people.

I just don't care anymore. Blacks seem to support whites being harassed by having their flags stolen from their private property, desecrating graves and monuments, so I just don't care anymore. It's called karma.
Blacks seem to support this based on what? Where are you getting this?
I am ashamed at my race. Bunch of white trash rednecks.
There is no reason to be 'ashamed' of your 'race'. On the other hand, there is little reason to be 'proud' of your skin pigmentation (or race). It is like saying "I am proud to be a warm-blooded mammal", as if one had any say in the matter.
Now, I am disappointed in individuals of all spectrum of skin pigmentation. I wish such individuals would act in ways that comport with being a civilized human being. Yet, such is life.
I guess one could say 'I am ashamed of the human race". It seems a bit extreme, and does not profit you or anyone else, but it would be more defendable.

I agree with this. I think one is only responsible for his or her own behavior.

I agree, the human race as a whole can be very shameful, ignorant, arrogant and downright dangerous.
True. You pi$$ people off once too often and start chipping away at their heritage, you're going to get pushback.
Yes but not at poor child's birthday party, how low can you go?
