well last summer, me and my friends were messing around in my truck after we cut the exhaust. we decided lets drive by school during prom and fly the confederate flag out the window.
next day got called in the office and was suspended for 5 days, for a racist act. and they tried to give me a hate crime ticket.
what do you think the flag means?
I think its heritage. but according to the school its racist, no matter what i told them. they say its racist. glad i transferd, that school expelled a redneck for wearing a belt buckle that had the flag on it.

its our southern heritage...it pisses me off when i get in trouble at school for wearing a shirt with the rebel flag on it...i had family from both sides fight for the csa in the civil war and a few of them died in it

yah i hate it too, because when they called me down to the office, on the way i asked a bunch of black people and mexicans who youd think they would think its racist an find it offencive. but nope they had no problem with it, they thought it was kinda pathetic how schools act on these things. i believe its heritage too, the cops and schools hear i think take advantage of the stereotype racist part though.

I know i got pulled over 4 times with my 3' by 5' duals in the bed of my truck like seen in the group picture. Its pathetic that people do stereo type and its anoying, Im in the army and i still fly the stars and bars i veiw it as a historical icon not a racist remark. The flag is a battle flag meaning that if you fly it your willing to protect who and what you stand for no matter what. I think people dont like it because of the fact the arent willing to give anything to protect who or what they stand for and thats what gets me the most upset.

It amazes me how narrow minded the american puplic has become, i mean so quick to jump to conclusion instead of finding out exactly what something is about.

i hate that id show up at school anyway to piss them off!!! and id wear a rebel flag shirt and print sum stuff off the net about what the flag means and hand them out to kids in the school. its just a battle flag it has no real meaning at all people just asume that it means you are a racist and like slavery. i have tons of dixie outfitter shirts and one that says if you hate this flag you need a history lesson. id challenge it and tell them they cant do anything to you for what you did. you didnt threatn anyone or make recist remarks so why do they care?? and if they got other races to see if they think its bad thing and they could care less you could get to help you by saying they proflied by getting called in for their being of different races. or you could not show up after your 5day susp. and when they start to ask why you arent coming to school tell them thats your way of getting back at them. cause believe it or not the less studnets are in school it hurts them

i live up in michigan but i was born in tennessee and my belt is the flag and my buckle i got supended also and they said i couldn't go back till i wrote it down and signed it that i would wear it no more it pisses me off that they worrie about this insted of gang stuff i see people wearing gang symbols all the time when i was in school yet thay only singled out the country boys even though it was a country farm school all the teachers lived in the big city next to us it just really pisses me off u know

I hate the fact that people that dont like it dont really know what the civil war was about!! I live in SC and the high school I went to didn't say anything to us about flying the stars and bar because over half of the time when we flew it there was a Black guy in the truck with us. We had more than 1 black man that would wear dixie outfitter shirts and had stars and bars on there caprices lol!!!

well i was born & raised in kentucky, temporarily livin in florida( hopin to move back REAL soon) but to me the rebel flag is southern pride, history, and ancestorial blood. i'll be a rebel till i die.

its not about racism, its about the rebellion from the system.

im likein all these comments =]. Im at a different school now, i got outa that place. school i go to now dont give a shit bout nothin. [ X ]
