World's biggest Confederate flag

[InletBchDweller]

Unfortunately bigots and racists don't have specific geographic locations. They are in the midwest and lord knows where there's meth there's skinheads.

so are you saying that anyone who displays the Confederate flag is a bigot or is racist???

You don't have to travel that far to see the same kind of display. There is one on I-65 South of Birmingham sponsored by a similar group.

There is also a large one just west of Mobile

yes, I have passed by it many times. I thought it was an alabama thing, but I guess not anymore. perhaps I am a yankee at heart. but I just don't know what to say or do about such symbolic things in the south so I just pretend I don't see them. no need for comment. just "hey, did you see that big ole cow patty?".

Here is a story that isn't surprising per se except for the location. See if you can figure out where these kids go to school (it isn't anywhere near the Mason Dixon Line)http://www.kare11.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=513203

dang, I bet half or more of the senior class of Florence High School would have not gotten to march!As ya'll know we had a huge deal on our hands back in 2000 when they were trying to decide whether to redesign our state flag (it has a confederate flag as part of the design) .At the end of the day,the flag was not changed. I've never seen so many state flags flying. My ex (the goat man) had one.He's gone now and so is the flag...
this probably should go on another thread,but why is that meth stuff such a redneck drug of choice.?

But to me the flag has nothing to do with race!! Hail around here we still relic hunt for mini balls,belt buckels etc and probe for bottles etc.The confederate ones have 10 times more value than yankee onesbecause of the fact the south had so few of everything.

No, but Minnesota isn't exactly dixie either. I was just saying that if your flying it that far north your probably not doing it for heritage reasons.

COW PATTY!!!

yep. its the new slang. lots of meanings. actually it means whatever you want it to mean.

"oh, you are such a cow patty!"
"her hair looks like a cow patty!"

"that flag is flying over about 450 fresh cow patties".
