The Confederate flag doesn't represent anything but history. The flags I mentioned represent existing tyranny. I don't see you chirping up about them ever. Would you like to take a stand on something substantial or are you just to aetherized?
There is so much real oppression in the world and all you get a boner for is America.

Therein you err. Even hate is a form of affection. Destruction is love too. As long as you destroy Yin and not Yang.

I'm not sure why you think there's so much political instability inside the US today, while things are far from perfect the US is still considered the most stable economic and military power in the world.
There are other hot spots around the globe that are in much worse shape, why the fixation on the US?

You lost me here. Isn't destroying either contrary to the Tao?

So when you say you are full of love it really means you are full of hate since they are the same? Is this what the mxe taught you? Why would you destroy yin, which is the female principal?

http://dailycurrant.com/2015/06/26/confederate-flag-kills-7-at-alabama-shopping-mall/
Seven people were killed this morning when a Confederate flag walked into an Alabama shopping mall and started shooting.
According to local reports, the flag entered Cherrywood Mall outside Huntsville armed with two AK-47 assault rifles, a P 228 handgun and several grenades. It immediately proceeded to unload its ordinance on unsuspecting shoppers.
In addition to those killed, 23 people were injured and are currently being treated in area emergency rooms. Several are in critical condition and not expected to survive.
The flag’s motivations are uncertain at the moment. However, according to witnesses the flag did specifically target White people with Northern accents.
“The flag chased us down the hallway screaming ‘Die, Yankees Die!’, says Justin Anderson, a aeronautical engineer originally from New Hampshire. “Luckily flags don’t move very fast, so my girlfriend and I managed to outrun it.”
Lucy Patterson, a homemaker from New Jersey wasn’t so lucky. Both her legs were blown off when the flag lobbed a hand grenade at her feet.
“It looked straight into my eyes, pulled the pin, and threw a deathball my way,” she says. “It was so cold-blooded. Almost as if it wasn’t human.”
Shortly thereafter the flag turned the gun on itself, shooting itself in the pole several times. Rushed to Huntsville Beth-Israel Medical Center, it was pronounced dead on arrival.
Confederate flags have increasingly been committing mass shootings in the South. Although retailers like Wal-Mart and Amazon have belatedly banned their sale, the existing stockpile of flags should be considered armed and extremely dangerous.
“It’s a real tragedy,” says Bret Michaels, the CEO of retailer Wal-Mart, “We should have stopped selling Confederate flags sooner. Think of how many flag-on-human shootings we could have prevented.

you CAN... sort of... because its collective.
so, like i've said a few times now, the stars and bars should be taken on by gay pride, especially gay black pride, if it became a symbol for gay people, then the people wearing it because they hate black people would have to wear something else...they'd get tired of gay black men walking up to them and asking for their number....and they'd take off the belt buckle for fear people would thik they are gay...
to the simple minded idiot theres nothing worse than their neighbor thinking they are a homo.
it takes the stigma and fucks it in the mind.
the end.
i dont understand normal people. but i do understand how to fuck with them.

It isn't her decision to make. Mr Roof truly believed in things. Does that make what he did OK?
Yes it is, she didn't want it there and took it down in a peacefull respective manner, it's her right to take take actions and defend her actions in court. I have nothing but respect for this person.
