Negative. It shows pride. Just like people liking lsu and the saints. I got a rebel flag tattoo on my right arm. Its draped over a cross. A little "colored" lady came up to me a while back calling me racist because of the tattoo. I kindly acknowledged her remark and kindly told her that if the cross was on fire then I would be racist. She shook my hand and told me it was a nice tattoo. So no I disagree !!!

im being called so on tigerdroppings for my purple and gold confederate flag.

The school colors are purple and gold. LSU's nickname is a throwback to its Confederate heritage and was drawn from the Civil War fame of two Louisiana brigades who fought so fiercely that they became known as the "Louisiana Tigers."

he claims that times have changed and thats not why we are the tigers anymore
and i am a close minded idiot

i dont see how that is an insult?
im glad to be closeminded and stand up for my beliefs

It's sad to say that these days, no matter your beliefs or pride, someone is going to try and squash it. Liberalism at it's finest. This country is in dire need of a serious wake up call. Hate to say it, but it's true.

yak'em-n-stack'em 10-04-2009 02:29 PM

yea they are all calling me out as a racist and bad fan, however some of them that said they were there wont say it to my face..... seems to me as someone is scared. if you cant say it to my face dont say it at all

Mediumheavyaction6'6 10-04-2009 02:37 PM

if those people knew how you really feel they would realize that flag is the least racist thing about you.

bay_slayer 10-04-2009 02:37 PM

Sounds like liberal talk to me

Jordan 10-04-2009 02:45 PM

Some people need to get a life. Is flying an american flag racist ??? Not to me !!! Flying a confederate flag ??? Nope !!! What's the big deal???

Ignorance is alive and well in the fact that this question is even being considered.

I had some training here at work last week and it was geared at this very subject. We were told that the Confederate flag was considered Racist and would not be allowed on the premises. :rolleyes: I asked about the State flag of South Carolina. The instructor didn't have an answer. Go figure.

yak'em-n-stack'em 10-05-2009 04:21 PM

what about the state flag of ms?

coachlaw 10-05-2009 07:38 PM

These people need a big fat historic kick in the keester.

Ray 10-05-2009 07:39 PM

I have a co-worker who had to remove his Miss. state flag from his coveralls because it was offensive to another worker of color. That is not the American way. In my opinion.
