Only on an internet site I guess.
I'm not the one threatening America but I can read good.

I don't think so, because I didn't read any threats from anyone except you. Also, you need to hone up on your grammar skills, because it is "read well". Well is an adverb modifying the verb read, which is what you were trying to do.

And the British flag. Because what the hell did they try to do to the US? No more UK flags on t-shirts, hanging in windows, etc. Ban 'em. And then we should cut all ties with England b/c you know, they tried to control us, by supporting the confederacy.

Thanks for the correction. I get one credit in my Current Affairs class for participating on C-D [but not on the Sports forum]. My teacher reads what I write though not everything

The U.S. Flag flew over slavery a full 70 years before the Confederate States of America came into existence. The Confederate Flag never flew over the Ships that brought the slaves over here.

To top it all off, the Confederate States of America freed her slaves in 1863; the Federal Union didn’t do it until 1868 with the passage of the 13th amendment.

Why should I drop out of high school? I get good grades & use some of the discussions on C-D for class. I'm tiring to get more students to join C-D.

You think it's OK to arrest people who have individual opinions and express themselves peacefully?

Do you really believe it's anti-American to peacefully disagree with your government's behavior?

If you do, you either don't know your American History or misunderstood it. Please go back and learn it.

The statements you are making are very creepy.
