…they won’t be able to fix the tape even if they close the door when they leave.

Jokes on you, I didn’t leave. I just re-tape the door before I hide under people’s bed.

Actually, I quite like the idea of secretly setting up some pins and rolling the ball down the aisle on a Sunday.

Sounds great, but the local bowling alley in my rural redneck town was just sold and converted to a community church. 🫤

Your response is baseless and is a ridiculous attempt to maliciously slander my character, don't do that. You claim I'm building an argument in support of flying the Confederate flag or justifying it, I did not and I would not. You clearly are not reading what I wrote or you would have seen that I said I did not agree with flying the flag in my second sentence.

As I've already indicated, the person before me asked for the circumstances that this situation occurred and I feel I provided them with more details about the event. Discussion of an event is in no way condoning what took place and it most definitely does not make me a confederate apologist you blathering fuckwit.

I'm not disagreeing with that. They asked for context, I gave it. I think it was dumb as hell and disrespectful to fly it, but it still would be intentional blindness to not see that including the Confederate flag in a historical exhibit is different than some asshole proudly flying it because it reflects his shitty beliefs.

My first post on Lemmy, instantly downvoted despite being factually correct. Ahhhh… feels like Reddit already. Home sweet home. 🏡👨🏻‍🌾

I think I'll go for a walk!

It was part of a historical flag display, showing a progression of 18 different flags flown in the US. I fully understand and agree with the opposition to ever flying a Confederate flag, especially on public grounds, but I do recognize that an exhibit of historical flags is a far different situation from some racist southern guvnah' insisting on flying it out of pride.
