Amazon, Ebay Ban Confederate Flags (But Not Nazi Coins, and Not Communist Flag) as Newest Identity Politics Crusade Gets a Full Head of Steam
On #TheLead: Manhunt clue; confed flag being banned by Amazon, eBay; Hillary talks race/Trump in 2nd in NH; shocking #ISIS video; US v Putin

— Seth Fiegerman (@sfiegerman) June 23, 2015@jaketapper @eBay that's world history. The confederate flag isn't.
— パイロ (@Shadow__Creeper) June 23, 2015Sorry for the light posting. I joked that I would get the Batflu today. In fact, the Batman game came, but I did not open it. I'm actually under the weather, and doing other business that needs doing, including writing a major endorsement for Mike Flynn. It's a hard thing to do, because I am putting unreasonable demands on it: that it has to be spectacular. I fear my ambition exceeds my ability, as is sadly so often the case. Writing is like I hear golf is: an endeavor almost deliberately designed to frustrate you and remind you you're not very good at it and never will be. But I swear, I am not playing Batman. The game is unopened; the shrink wrap is intact.

A week ago, I could have (presumably, I actually have no idea) bought a Dukes of Hazard T-Shirt at WalMart and Rebel Flag on amazon and had it to my door in 2 days.
Now, I'd have to go on the darknet and buy it with bitcoins and have it shipped in a "discrete" box.
How... bizarre.

As a Southerner I understand the whole Stars and Bars thing but I always thought it was just, well, tacky.
I had ancestors on both sides of that war and a slightly famous one on the Southern side.
I know this is juvenile but all this hate is making me want to get a confederate flag for the first time in my life. If the next gun control agenda goes through there's gonna have to be a new flag 'cause they are going to start a shooting war.

I knew that was coming next. As I say a few days ago the NAACP said they would work to remove all vestiges of the Confederacy. If you give in on one it just opens the door for the next one.
I personally think the NAACP and the CBC are the most racist organization in the US.

Note how fast and furious the anti-South jihad is spreading: they won't stop with the flags and memorials. We're their favorite target for their daily Two Minutes Hate: brace yourselves for a lot more.

Yeah. I don't care about the confederate flag. As a yankee, it's always kind of ... I don't want to say annoyed me, but I don't know.
Anyways.
The speed at which this happened -- over something completely unrelated -- is... scary.
Wonder whats next on the chopping block?
Almost makes you think there were some crusading SJW's just waiting for an excuse to ban the confed flag who jumped on this "crisis" and didnt want to let it go to waste.
But only black helicopter seeing, tin foil hat wearing people would possibly think that guns will be banned like this some day.

Monument Avenue, in Richmond, Virginia, is a premier example of the Grand American Avenue city planning style. The first monument, a statue of Robert E. Lee, was erected in 1890. Between 1900 and 1925, Monument Avenue exploded with architecturally significant houses, churches and apartment buildings. A tree-lined grassy mall divides the east- and westbound sides of the street and is punctuated by statues memorializing Virginian Confederate participants of the Civil War Robert E. Lee, J.E.B. Stuart, Jefferson Davis, Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, and Matthew Fontaine Maury, as well as Arthur Ashe, a Richmond native and international tennis star.

Then another guy said "Way ahead of you. In fact, I've got the tactics all mapped out. All we need is the incident and that flag is as good as banned within a week, ten days at most."
Almost.

Watched a Civil War documentary once where the narrator quoted a scholar (can't remember the name) of that war who said, "To understand the Civil War is to understand America".
I'm sure that in colleges and universities everywhere, the history of the Civil War is being thoroughly re-written.

Yes it is. After the trade and associated deals are confirmed the management of individual rights, Laws and Trade in The United States will be decided by a handful of "experts" in International Law outside the Country. There are about 50 recognized "experts" that are considered competent to arbitrate between Nations in the future who sign on and I think a panel of between 3-12 will run the USA but there are no representatives for citizens.

There's plenty of historical evidence. Take Japan's, for example. Japan is a nation that became industrialized in the 19th century and saw its influence rapidly expand, especially through the 1930s. Then, in 1945, something horrible happened to that country. Twice, in fact. It was just awful. And now you see Toyotas all over America but you never see a Chevy in Tokyo.
You see? There's plenty of material we can learn from.

1) stop all ammunition sales either by outright ban or taxes
2) make the use, carry or purchase of all firearms illegal or impose onerous restrictions in sales and registration.
3) ban all ranges and firearms sale stores.
4) use the fairly well current lists of carry permittees and owners for confiscation.
they may not be able to repossess all firearms but they will make it very difficult to use without discovery and thus penalty.
The only answer will be rebellion not disobedience or refusal to cooperate.

They are already agitating for the removal of Confederate names from public buildings.

Remember what the liberals used to say about history? Those who don't know it are doomed to repeat it?
Do they have any fucking idea WHY keeping their names--and honoring them--is important?
But, let's pretend slavery--in the United States alone, mind you--was, and is, the worst thing in the history of the world to ever happen.

The shift has already taken place in terms of indignant ideological denunciations of any joke along those lines.
Bob Hope back in the 1970s said, "I've just come from California, where they've made homosexuality legal. I thought I'd get out before they made it compulsory."
It got a big laugh. No one flipped out about it.
Whereas just a short while ago, Mark Steyn got in hot water with the editorial board at _National Review_ simply for quoting the Hope joke in a piece about gay identity politics.

For the children.
Then when they talk about how ridiculous that would be, we can smile and say "yeah, that would be ridiculous wouldn't it. Banning a piece of history from public discourse is kind of... Sovietesque, no?"
And they'll still ban the confederate flag, and will call us book burners.

Because in less than 7 days the Supreme Court is going to say that fags have a civil right to call themselves "married."
And if you thought the SJW were shrill now . . .
They are about to get the one big victory they needed to legally--and criminally--punish any and every thought they find offensive.
Sure, it starts with "you can't say fags can't be married--that's discrimination."
Because the Court will hand them the template, foundation and encouragement: "You managed to make any bad thoughts about homosexuals illegal. Now: What other thoughts ought to be illegal?"
Either we learn to fight back or . . . .

I've been reading "I Will Bear Witness," (Klemperer), a diary by a converted-to-Lutheran Jew during the years of Hitler's rise to power. The processes of ever-increasing bans and constrictions and humiliations are ... similar. We're at the top of that slope, but what's really dangerous is that the Left is discovering more and more that there are NO BRAKES on them: they can roar through our entire country wreaking havoc at will, because there is no effective counterattack to their culture war.

Interesting, I never knew that. We also have Churchills here in America (just not in Obama's house). I understand the history aspect of it, and that's why I don't want the battlefield memorials to change at all. George Washington didn't fight to keep his slaves; the South was.

George Washington does not equal Jefferson Davis. Robert E. Lee could equal George Washington. Jefferson Davis was the political leader of the secession. I'm tolerant of private and business establishments keeping their Jefferson Davis statues, or Confederate Flags, or supporting gay marriage. I don't agree with them though.

but in such a way that everyone thought it meant something else.
They didn't do the triggering events (probably) but they were prepared for them and would have done something similar to spark them if they didn't happen on their own.
That means they have more in store. And it will be worse than what's happened so far.

Good God ... How many damn times do the Progressives have to pull this shit on you people before you pull your naive heads out of your asses.

You might have missed a little bit. Lee did not want to go to war, but his country was Virginia and he went with Virginia. It was only after the civil war we really started talking about the United States as a whole. I hope this helps.

But it's not that, is it?
This isn't South Carolina looking at the fact they're flying the Confederate Flag at their State House, and saying, "You know, maybe that's a bit tasteless."
This is South Carolina being bullied into removing the flag.
The fact is that many of us in the South are very, very proud of our Confederate heritage. This is not simply an attack on the flag, but on that heritage.

Jefferson Davis = evil for being 1st president of the confederacy and for seceding from the US
Robert E Lee = cool, even though he was a general in the southern
army which killed hundreds of thousands of US citizens, and even though
he resigned his commission from the US Army to take up arms against said
army.
I think I got it.
Posted by: mynewhandle at June 23, 2015 05:08 PM (AkOaV)
I wouldn't say Jefferson Davis=evil. I doubt he is. Probably just wrong. Just like the swatzstika stands for national socialism, to me I think it is reasonable to say that Jefferson Davis stands for slavery. Same could be said of Sherman for burning towns and killing former US citizens. Also, I personally have some Rommel books who was an opportunist who worked with the Nazis.
Posted by: Draki at June 23, 2015 05:13 PM (TPjYk)
Jefferson Davis did not want to secede either but was adamant that States should be able to do so if they chose.

certain statues of Davis as the 1st President would be here, but they
lost thankfully. I wouldn't want any statues of the temperance political
leaders either. Damn beer haters.

To bad the Yankees weren't cool with Lee. Tthey took Lee's property. Arlington Cemetery was his estate. Then, of course, they lied about his citizenship and it took an act of congress to give him his citizenship back and pay him for this land.

I don't and I didn't know that. Thanks for telling me. It's sad and wrong what they did to Lee then. All property should have been handed back to their owners/heirs after the war, except for Ft. Bragg and the occupation bases.

CSA = absence of black civil rights. Honoring the CSA = honoring the absence of black civil rights. We affirm our commitment to black civil rights by disrespecting the CSA and all who lead it. They are not American heroes, they are white Southern racist heroes.

I don't know about the Confederate statues, but I live three streets over once you turn at the statue of Arthur Ashe. Every time I pass it, I wonder why they would build a statue that looks like Arthur is throwing books at little children and threatening them with a tennis racket (as they raise their hands to ward him off).
