My Central Massachusetts middle-school team name was the Rebels, and there was a logo of a confederate drummer boy on the basketball court. That middle school no longer exists as of about 10-15 years ago, I'm not sure if they ever changed the name. I don't remember anyone ever calling attention to it, either because it was offensive, or because it was just geographically strange. And this was a very diverse school. Just very odd in retrospect.

Just give the school a Star Wars theme and they'll be fine.

Well when BLM movement starts to refer to white liberals as "white supremacists" they've officially lost my support.

An amendment to replace the Confederate battle flag outside South Carolina’s Statehouse with a white flag of surrender has been defeated.


House lawmakers tabled the proposal by Rep. Christopher Corley, a Republican, who suggested replacing the Confederate battle flag with a white flag.

The plain white flag, Corley said, would be symbolic of state Republicans’ apparent surrender on the issue.

“I don’t have a picture, but it would look like this,” Corley told the chamber, waving a small white flag from the House podium.

Corley is back in the news today. He sent this message to his fellow lawmakers in a Christmas Card.

Jesus feels like some kind of hole card conservatives try to play whenever things don't go their way.

And a year later, this jerkwad makes the news again.

Jury condemns Dylann Roof to death for South Carolina church massacre

I'm against the death penalty and that applies to this case. Oh well, to be honest he was probably going to get shanked sooner or later.

Also I wanted to create a parody thread titled "CharlestonChewing" but I thought it would be in bad taste.

I don't know what she was like before Charleston but gotta believe it messed her up.

If she didn't get help already, she needs some now.

The 18-year-old sister of Charleston, S.C., church shooter Dylann Roof was arrested Wednesday for carrying pepper spray, a knife and marijuana in her high school, authorities said.

Morgan Roof also posted on Snapchat a critique of Wednesday’s National Student Walkout protest against gun violence, the Post and Courier of Charleston, S.C., reported.

“Your [sic] walking out for the allowed time of 17min, They are letting you do this, nothing is going to change what (the expletive) you think it’s gonna do? I hope it’s a trap and y’all get shot we know it’s fixing to be nothing but black people walkin out anyway,” Roof posted, Fox 57 reported.

I think that last sentence in what she posted pretty much tells you how she was wired before. Pretty obvious hate and ignorance is the culture in that family.

Yeah, I thought that too ... but got to give her the benefit of doubt re: the horror from her brother.
