Reply #55: I don't consider myself either fragile or delicate, but

everytime that I see the stars and bars on a t-shirt with the wording "It's a Southern thing", I'm instantly pissed and think, 'no, it's your goddamned thing and don't try to lump the entire South in with that.'

It's not "political correctness' and this isn't a case of that running amock. His arguments don't hold up very well. On the one hand, he's stating that it's because of his great, great uncle who died for "the South" and toward the end of the article he or his attorney, states some shit about 'what we believe in.' In between there are references to political buttons, images of Martin Luther King, Jr., and I was left with the impression that he just wants to be a racist punk.

Although I find it disgusting, he has the right to do that in the hours that he's out of school, but keep in mind that in this state, along with some others, the stars and bars has a different significance than political buttons, etc.
