Angola's flag with a machete on it.
Mozambique's with an AK-47 on it. |

I love the Bear Flag from California and the Lone Star from Texas.
Internationally, the Brazilian flag does look nice and futuristic. The Mexican flag is pretty graphic with the eagle eating a snake...some Aztec legend  The flag of the Bahamas is very beautiful with the right shade of turquoise blue to match the sea there.
Also like the Italian and Greek flags for their design and coloring. |

I just don't get it. Sure, I can sympathize with the members of any minority, including US southerners, resenting domination from outsiders. And I know that many supporters iof the Confederacy were admirable and brave men and women (such as Robert E. Lee).
But . . the sole reason for the existence of the Confederacy was the perpetuation of SLAVERY. Is that anything to be proud that one's ancestors supported?

Not so fast....what about tariffs? States' rights vs. Federation? If you're going to make such a broad statement why don't you do a bit of online research (it's right at your fingertips) before you stick your foot in your mouth. |
