Confederate Flag Rallies Draw Thousands From Across The South.

In the aftermath of the TV campaign of hatred against all things Confederate, good folks are outraged at the ongoing attack on their Southern symbols.

From Occidental Dissent

Splendid news from across Dixie today, as thousands of brave White, and some Black, men and women assembled across several states to demand their heritage and symbols be restored and respected.

The largest rally in Montgomery, Alabama, site of Governor Robert Bentley’s treasonous decision to remove the Confederate flag from the Capitol monument, drew well over a thousand folks, by conservative estimates, and was hailed as a massive success by those organizing the event.

Speeches concerning the attacks on Southern culture and history were given to a rapturous crowd, topped off with a thunderous rendition of “I Wish I was In Dixie” that brought many of those gathered to the point of joyful and patriotic tears.

Other rallies in Tampa, Florida, Harrison, Arkansas, Gastonia, North Carolina, and Columbia, South Carolina drew hundreds more courageous Southern patriots into the struggle, as the waves of discontent over Marxist cultural genocide continue to grow stronger.

This is only the beginning of something far greater, and a sign that a tough and hardy people, bound by ties of blood, faith, and custom, cannot be held down indefinitely by those who wish death and destruction for all.

Arkansas witnessed an ad hoc awakening on Saturday as well. No retreat, no surrender, no apology.

Near Tampa, Florida, hundreds of protesters prevented a tiny group of degenerates from burning a Confederate flag.

SCV and League of the South To Rally In Lexington.

From The Occidental Dissent

The Maryland/Virginia League of the South will be holding a protest in Lexington, VA this weekend on Saturday, July 26th, in response to the removal of the regimental Confederate battle flags from Lee Chapel at Washington and Lee University. The meeting will begin at the Jackson monument at 10:00 AM.

The SCV is also holding a rally:

“Washington and Lee University has desecrated Robert E. Lee’s grave, but can remedy its error by restoring the Confederate battle flags and separating the chapel from university politics, the commander of the local Sons of Confederate Veterans said.

The Lexington-based Stonewall Brigade plans Saturday to battle the removal of replica flags from Lee Chapel with a downtown flag vigil starting at noon. That will be followed by an open forum at 4 p.m. at the Holiday Inn Express to discuss how to respond to what it terms “grave robbery.” …”

Confederate flags removed from Robert E. Lee’s tomb.

From TPC

The president of Washington and Lee University, Kenneth Ruscio, announced in an email this afternoon that the eight regimental Confederate battle flags on display in Lee Chapel, which rests above the crypt where Robert E. Lee and his family are buried, will be removed. He also issued a public apology for slavery.

Back in April, a group of 12 black law students that call themselves “the Committee” issued a series of demands because they reportedly felt “alienation and discomfort” on a campus where blacks are only 3.5 percent of the student body:

1. We demand that the University fully recognize Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on the undergraduate campus.

2. We demand that the University stop allowing neo-confederates to march on campus with confederate flags on Lee-Jackson Day.

3. We demand that the University immediately remove all confederate flags from its property and premises, including those flags located within Lee Chapel.

4. We demand that the University issue an official apology for the University’s participation in chattel slavery, including a denunciation of General Robert E. Lee’s participation in slavery.

Predictably, this petulant list of demands received state, local, and national publicity from the media, and President Ruscio created a special committee to study the issue. “The Committee” promised to engage in “civil disobedience” unless their demands to “remove Lee’s legacy” were not met by September 1.

What can we learn from this episode?

1. This isn’t the first time that blacks have been found molesting the graves of Confederate leaders. The Memphis City Council voted to rename three Confederate parks including the resting place of Nathan Bedford Forrest.

2. Rep. Tyrone Brooks of the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials orchestrated the removal of the Tom Watson statue on the grounds of the Georgia State Capitol in Atlanta and its replacement with a statue of Martin Luther King, Jr. Governor Deal swore that the removal of the Watson statue was only a public safety issue.

3. The NAACP orchestrated the removal of the Confederate battle flag from the South Carolina State House in 2000 and over 1,000 blacks rallied in January in Columbia to have it removed from the State House grounds altogether.

NASCAR Hates Southern Heritage!

NASCAR spit on it’s southern fan base again by declaring that the Confederate flag is offensive. NASCAR reneged on a promise to allow PGA star Bubba Watson to drive an original General Lee from the Dukes of Hazard TV show as a pace car at the Phoenix International Raceway.

Despite being most popular among white southerners, NASCAR has a history of insulting southern heritage. In 2004 NASCAR told the No. 50 team of Derrike Cope that their sponsor, Redneckjunk.com, was not appropriate for the sport. The Arnold Motorsports team was told that it had to remove all decals for the Internet classified ad site. Nextel Cup Series Manager of Communications Herb Branham said the sponsorship was pulled because ‘redneck’ is offensive to some people and we did not feel that it reflected the proper image for our sport.  Sons of Confederate Veterans is also banned from being an advertiser.

A Southerner Speaks

I have always been proud of my time spent as an officer in the United States Marine Corps. I served in the Republic of Vietnam in 1969 and, while I was certainly no “John Wayne” type, I tried to do my duty to the best of my ability and I did bring all of my platoon out of Vietnam alive.

This past summer, the son of a frend of mine was very ‘gung ho’ about joining the Marines and asked my opinion, which I tried to give as honestly as possible, warts and all. I don’t know if my discussions had any influence on him, but he enlisted, completed all of the pre-enlistment tests and physical exams and went to all of the pre-enlistment meetings. To say the least, he was very excited about serving his country in the Corps.

Shortly before he left Nashville for boot camp, he was told he could not serve his country because he had a Confederate Battle Flag tattooed on his shoulder in an area that would be completely covered by a t-shirt, and certainly by his uniform.

When informed of this, I went to the local recruiting station that had processed this young man to see if I were getting the entire story. The recruiter, a staff sergeant, told me, “Yes, sir. The Marine Corps considers the Confederate Flag a ‘hate symbol,’ but if the young man in question had a state or U.S. flag tattoo, that would be acceptable.”

I informed the young sergeant that my family had defended the State of Tennessee (also his home state) against a sadistic invasion under that flag and to call our sacred flag of honour a ‘hate symbol was an insult to ALL southerners, but especially to those southereners who had risked or even given their lives in service to the Marine Corps. Southerners had served at Belleau Woods, at Taraw and Iwo Jima, at Inchon and the Chosin Reservoir, and at Khe Sahn and Hue City, but now we are no longer wanted in the politically-correct don’t-offend-any-minorities military? (This was just prior to the Fort Hood massacre)

Cultural Genocide in Dixie.

By James Edwards

Of all the issues that animate me to action this one strikes to the very marrow of my bones. I will fight many battles in the court of public opinion, but when you denigrate the Confederacy and spit upon the South’s great legacy, you are attacking my family. And the day you attack my family is the day you’ll see me take to the streets.

We covered, at great length during our February 27 broadcast, the vicious attacks of Cultural Genocide being levied against Southern Heritage from the campus of Ole Miss. Playing their role in this unforgivable assault on our people is none other than the infamous Tuohy family, made popular in Hollywood by the film The Blind Side. We’ve provided ample commentary about the disturbing tenets of that film, so let us focus now on the issue at hand.

First of all, we should never forget that the South was RIGHT. There is no shame to bear. In fact, I consider myself having won the genetic lottery for God to have allowed me to come into this world as a Southern male and to have been born and raised in the former Confederate State of Tennessee. This birthright is something I wouldn’t trade for any amount of money. It’s an affirmation of pride that we all should share.

As I have made mention of before on The Political Cesspool, my great grandfather’s grandfather fought, and died, in service to the Confederate Cavalry at the Battle of Shiloh. As a child my parents would frequently take me to visit my great grandparents in Corinth, Mississippi, and I was lucky enough to have seen the blood-stained saddle that belong to my heroic ancestor so many years prior.

Ole Miss Hates Southerners.

At Ole Miss, the hatred for their own people is getting worse every year. They banned their mascot, Colonel Reb, several years ago, because he was a symbol of the hated South. Then they went further:

The university has taken other steps in recent years to throw off what many perceive as lingering reminders of a Confederate past. Last year, the band stopped playing the fight song, From Dixie With Love, to discourage fans from chanting, “the South will rise again.”

All this follows the 1997 decision to quit flying the Confederate flag at games. Since Colonel Reb got dumped, the school has been without a mascot. The other day they held a vote to see if they should get a new one. Traditionalists were hoping for a no vote, that the Ole Miss community would send a message – if we can’t have Colonel Reb, we don’t want any mascot. But they lost.

And guess who’s one of the big players in the anti-Colonel Reb movement?

Collins Tuohy, a recent graduate interviewed a few days before the vote, said her parents recognized the need for the change when they attended the school.

“My dad was an athlete and my mom was a cheerleader. They saw firsthand that the flag and Colonel Reb were having an effect on people,” she said of Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, who are depicted in the Oscar-nominated film, The Blind Side

Tune in to TPC this Saturday night, when we’ll be discussing this anti-Southern hatred at length. It’s cultural genocide, plain and simple, and we can’t allow this to continue.

The Political Cesspool can be heard live each Saturday night from 6pm-9pm Central Time on AM 1380 WLRM in Memphis, Tennessee, and on the AM / FM affiliate stations of the Liberty News Radio Network.

The Largest Confederate Flag in the World.

Alabama councilman removes Confederate flags from graves.

From nbc13.com

Mary Norman was shocked Thursday afternoon when Auburn Councilman Arthur L. Dowdell pulled up a Confederate flag placed on her great-grandfather’s grave and snapped it in half, she said.

Dowdell, who denies snapping the flag, said Thursday he was picking up his daughter from Auburn Junior High School near the cemetery when several people told him they “had a problem” with the flags.

He drove to the cemetery and started pulling up flags, he said. “It’s offensive to me,” he said. “To me, it represents the Ku Klux Klan and racism.”

“One of the flags had been placed on my great-grandfather’s grave, who was a Confederate soldier,” Norman said. “He just got very upset, and he went over to my great-grandfather’s grave, picked up the flag and broke it in two.”

He pulled up Confederate flags from other soldiers’ graves, too, she said. Dowdell said in his years as councilman, he had never seen so many Confederate flags in one place. “I’m going on the record that this will never happen again,” Dowdell said. “This will never happen again as long as I’m on the city council.”

Response from a Patriotic Citizen.

Sir:

I understand that you recently took it upon yourself to dishonor Confederate Veterans of the Civil War by removing Confederate Battle Flags from the private property of their decendants because you found them “offensive”.

SHAME ON YOU, COUNCILMAN, for your self righteous, pompous bigotry. What makes you think your “feelings” justify trampling on other folks feelings and rights and property?

I am a Vietnam Combat Veteran with a Bronze Star from the 101st Airborne. In my family tree you’ll find men listed as heroes by the Daughters of the American Revolution who served with Gen. George Washington, men who served as indentured servants to others for extended terms because they disagreed with polite society, and veterans of virtually every conflict in this country’s history to include both Confederate and Union Soldiers in the Civil War.

We don’t mind defending your freedoms, but we will not tolerate your whiny, feeble, weak attempts to limit ours!

You, Sir, are a disgrace and a fraud, historically ignorant, and suffer from the mistaken assumption that anybody really cares that you’re offended.

If you’re offended, stay the hell out of our cemeteries and off our property.
