Where will it stop? Next their gonna abolish the constitution and anything done during the first 100 yrs if this country because they were all slave owners
Sure, that's the exactly same thing as a flag and a movement that was created to keep slavery legal and secede from the country.

Do you really think they’ll stop at just banning the flag? Common, your smarter than that.

Who is this nebulous "they."
Sure, some people will hate the founders. No, companies aren't about to take action on that or on the US flag.
The lack of nuance found here is amazing.

I’m referring to the fringe far left groups that seem to slowly be making inroads into main stream democrat policy. Who woulda thunk just a short while ago that it would be main stream democrat policy to defund the police? I’m not saying tomorrow they’ll abolish the constitution, but it’s prob one of their long term goals

Mayors of the 2 biggest cities and I assume many Dems on Capitol Hill, doesn’t seem so fringe to me.

At this point maybe dismantling the police like Omar said, that’s fringe. But to defund the police is not fringe

Nike pulled a pair of shoes that had the Betsy Ross flag (if I remember correctly, after it had already been shipped to stores)

Really really scary... @Dan this is what I'm talking about.

"Your belief in hashtags and memes over the truth has and will create an environment in your community that you will never expect.
If you think Minneapolis will never turn into Mogadishu – it’s coming.
And when it does, remember what your complicity did.
This is the America that you made."

The vilification of all cops is something that has swung too far, definitely more meaningful that Nascar banning a slavery flag.

Its the same guys same movement...... this part of a bigger picture. These aren't random isolated incidents. We see 2 weeks of endless rioting looting, stores being robbed of millions and politicians want to get rid of law enforcement. At this rate we won't have a country left much longer

That was a build up showing the irony of cities burning down and politicians wanting to get rid of cops which is the only reason that these cities aren't completely destroyed now. Wasn't weakening in the slightest

Erm no. They were pro states doing what they want. Flag was born to represent the southern trying to keep their freedom from the northern aggression. Part of the south was pro slavery and therefore people say that it was it represents and it racist. But  its just m ajor revisionist history. And now in the south it represents a southern way of life and not having a way of life forced on you. And Kind of what's happening now.... thats probably why people are so against.
The way of life that was forced on them, was not to enslave blacks.
Should a soap factory use a Nazi flag, to show they like making soap like the Nazis?
