"The Arkansas House on Thursday overwhelmingly approved a proposal to end a day that commemorates the Confederate flag. The majority-Republican House voted 80-7 for legislation to abolish Confederate Flag Day, which is designated as the Saturday before Easter. The bill now heads to the majority-Republican Senate for a vote. The top Republican in the House, Rep. Austin McCollum, sponsored the measure and noted Confederate Flag Day was enacted in response to the 1957 desegregation of Little Rock Central High School. Gov. Asa Hutchinson said in a statement the measure makes sense to him and he plans to sign it if it reaches his desk."
Why won't they leave the Confederacy alone?? Haven't they already defeated them?? Why does the racist woke mob continue to attack the patriotism and honor of the Confederacy?? It was bad enough when these people forced legislators to change the symbolic meaning of one of the stars on the state's flag from honoring the Confederacy to honoring a bunch of subhuman savage native Americans...now these folks are doing away with Confederate day??
This is outrageous....Confederate Day is easily one of the most sacred days in the history of Arkansas...People have celebrated that day for generations or at least until those uppity darkies started attending schools with real Americans.....

Come on. "woke"?
The argument used against Kaepernick was something to do with the military. The Confederacy killed 140,000 US troops.
It's the very thing the right attack all the time. Anti-Patriotic nonsense. Hypocrisy.
1. That argument was flawed. The flag is not a symbol of the military. The Flag is the symbol of the nation as a whole. Kaepernick is an anti-American asshole and a piece of shit.
2. The Confederacy, and it's history, has long ago been assimilated into American culture and heritage, and by and large those that celebrate that portion of our heritage are, as a group, at LEAST as patriotic as the rest of Americans. Only an asshole would try to reopen a wound from a hundred years before they were born.
