Sometimes the meaning and definition of a thing can change over the years to some people. You can continue to hate it, or you can embrace it.

I've said my peace about my feelings on the Confederate flag. But if others have a different take, that's their business.
Agreed.

If the American people listened to trash like Kanye West less and they listened to intelligent people more we would be a lot better off as a country.

I beg to differ since I would never consider Kanye to be "trash". You can call him "insane' or a "lunatic" or "crazy" or maybe just a "genius".

Really? Black trash? If I called Miley Cyrus (and I wouldn't) White trash, my post would most likely be deleted. That is an offensive, racist statement. If you don't like him or his music, fine. There is still no need to call him Black trash. If this story is true, he's making a fool of himself, like many other celebrities. Good thing every thing I've done wasn't seen by the public eye.

I don't care what Kanye does because I have no respect for him anyway. I still don't like the Confederate flag.

sadly, the north never stopped fighting the civil war. they are still attacking the south to this day. however, while they might get the occasional win, the south is destroying the north this time around.
