I don't care....

I don't care but the Mods killed the flag thread while I was posting my comment.

This shows nothing against Walmart. I mean they hire people to do the job they need. I doubt the ceo of Walmart approved these actions. 

Its just a  sad redneck trying to prove a stupid point. He tricked someone that couldn't even pass the United states citizen test into making an IsIS flag. I think it's pretty SMH, but I'm just glad the cake maker has a job!

The confederate flag belongs in a museum, not over the capital building. 

Just my thoughts, and I'm even a Mississippian.

And to think I thought the forums were on Zombie Autopilot. No help to be had when the pages were not serving correctly, a low and behold out of nowhere a mod appears.

I think there are two different "issues"; content and operation. The content can be buried, deleted or authorizations allowed or denied by someone who has no idea how it works while the how it works and how to fix it is handled by someone else.

Who apparently also has no idea how it works!

I started the thread that got pulled. I'm very surprised that the mods pulled the thread.
That was a ligament news story. It is a hot topic on local new-talk radio. The video itself is not offensive. The comments by our forum members were well though and expressed. What's wrong with hearing and reading different points of view in the off-topic thread?
So now speaking about the Confederate battle flag is now offensive? 
So freakin' what if it's a sensitive topic? 
I understand that white supremacist tainted the flag by using it as a symbol.
NOT once in my entire life have I looked at the Confederate battle flag and thought a racist thought.  NEVER.
The South, Civil War,  Ole Miss Rebels and Dukes of Hazard pop in my mind way before a racist symbol enters my thoughts.

Regarding the flag issue, talk show radio here had some interesting comments. Basically every flag has some baggage. The discussion included how what was a fact of life in one era is simply not correct, politically or otherwise, today. The Confederate flag not only stood to retain slavery, it also stood to not surrender the reins of government to the north - all the elements of a true civil war. During WWII, under the Stars and Stripes the basic citizenship rights of American citizens with Japanese or African heritage were denied. Some rights were denied into the '60s. In Canada, it was under our flag of the day we seized the assets of Canadians with Japanese heritage, refused to allow a boatload of Sikhs entery or some say, committed genocide with our residential school system.  
Even the Union Jack allowed slavery until 1833, and in the century that followed flew over the political and financial "rape" of India.
If some whack job took any of these flags to be his symbol and committed a crime under them, does that mean the flag should now stand only for that action?
(not my words - just the gist of the radio show comments)

@tonytiger the "political" threads are always the first to go. Always. Legit topic or not.   Followed by making fun of col sanders.  

This is one will have a short life. Just watch. Sinking or nuked soon.

I saw the topic, but I cruised on down and didn't take time to read....I missed it all...Well at least JIC is back in and back to normal !!!!!  Maybe someone will start a "Bring back the flag" thread !!!

Jason. I missed your thread that got executed

Did somebody call me?

If we simply title the thread "devestated" it makes all content in invisible to mods.  Thousands of offensive and political posts; anything goes.  We could probably even talk about the colonel...
