I THINK ALL OF HAZZARD NATION UNDERSTANDS THAT THE CONFEDERATE BATTLE FLAG IS THE SYMBOL THAT REPRESENTS THE INDOMITABLE SPIRIT OF INDEPENDENCE WHICH KEEPS US “MAKING’ OUR WAY THE ONLY WAY WE KNOW HOW.”
THAT FLAG ON TOP OF THE GENERAL LEE MADE A STATEMENT THAT THE VALUES OF THE RURAL SOUTH WERE THE VALUES OF COURAGE AND FAMILY AND GOOD TIMES.
OUR BELOVED SYMBOL IS NOW BEING ATTACKED IN A WAVE OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS THAT IS UNPRECEDENTED IN OUR NATION OF FREE SPEECH AND FREE EXPRESSION. ACTIVISTS AND POLITICIANS ARE VILIFYING SOUTHERN CULTURE AND OUR HERITAGE AS BEING BIGOTED AND RACIST. WE KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT THE CASE. AND WE KNOW THAT IN HAZZARD COUNTY THERE WAS NEVER ANY RACISM.
THOUGH THE FLAG HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM SUCH PLACES AS WALMART, TARGET AND AMAZON, IT WILL NEVER BE REMOVED FROM ANY OF OUR COOTER’S STORES AND MUSEUMS. WE ARE ALL THE SAME GOOD PEOPLE TODAY THAT WE WERE LAST WEEK AND LAST YEAR AND WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE SHAMED INTO TURNING OUR BACKS ON OUR HERITAGE AND OUR CONVICTIONS.
WE ARE NOT RACISTS. WE DESPISE RACISM AND BIGOTRY. AND WE THINK THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CREATING THIS “CULTURAL CLEANSING” ARE THE REAL BIGOTS IN THIS STORY.
WHEN WE SAY OUR FLAG STANDS FOR “HERITAGE, NOT HATE” AND “PRIDE, NOT PREJUDICE”, WE MEAN IT. AND WE BELIEVE THAT OLD SAYING, “YOU CAN’T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING IF YOU FORGET WHERE YOU CAME FROM.”
COOTER’S IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO SELL OUR SOUTHERN SYMBOLS AS LONG AS THERE IS A COOTER’S. I WILL FIGHT THESE PEOPLE UNTIL HELL FREEZES OVER, AND THEN I WILL FIGHT THEM ON THE ICE.
You know how those Christian bakers are coming under attack because they refuse to make cakes for same-sex weddings? The government doesn’t think that an individual’s personal beliefs gives them the right to deny service. Well, if you follow that line of thinking, shouldn’t the government force a bakery to make a cake featuring the most vilified symbol of the day – a Confederate Flag? When Glenn woke up this morning, he checked to see if he could purchase anything with a Confederate flag through Google Shopping. No luck. He then swapped out “Confederate” with “Nazi”, and lo and behold he could purchase plenty of related items.
“Are we insane? Look at what we’ve just done. We all try to make ourselves feel better by saying, I’m not going to sell the Confederate flag, but I’m perfectly fine selling the Nazi flag,” Glenn said. What will wake people up to the insanity? Glenn has an idea. While he doesn’t believe the Confederate flag should be flying over the state capitol, he does think people should be able to put it on private property. Like a bumper sticker, a belt buckle, or maybe even a cake. “Here’s what I’d like to suggest. People go in and ask for a wedding cake or a birthday cake with the Confederate flag on it. And if anybody says no, they won’t make that cake, sue them,” Glenn said. “Now, just so I’m consistent and you understand, I believe the baker has a right to say no to you,” Glenn said. The government and progressives, on the other hand, have shown that they think you should be forced to violate your beliefs
What do you think will happen if someone tries to do this in Seattle or San Francisco?
Free speech is not “free speech” if it only applies to some. Period. More>>>Here
