As long as we’re doing full disclosure (and I can have something in common with Ellie Goulding):

With all due respect, fuck no.

I’m a white Russian (always savour the chance to make that joke) and I live in UK. I’ve been to US once, anything I know about America comes from popular culture and history books. I’m a huge history buff and am very strongly against any whitewashing of dubious historical artefacts. So upon hearing of this controversy…

Good. As you can see from the United example, the free market is forcing the airline to address itself. No need for Big Government to intervene. The investors will.

Not defending this employee’s behaviour, but let’s not act like all airline passengers are saints. Honestly it comes down to airline conglomerates treating passengers like cattle and employees like shit. It’s a powder keg. Too bad Congress decided long ago not to enforce anti-trust laws. Our skies are less…

No, you calm down!!

Just wanted to say that Republicans only want small government when it’s convenient to them. Gun ownership? Good. LGBTQ rights? Bad. And separation of church and state? (To these idiots) bad also. They care about rights when it’s exclusively for them. Everyone else can fuck off in their mind

That rifle is really shitty. Government profile barrel? Exposed gas block? No-name carbine length quad rail? Lucid red dot? I can only imagine it has a milspec trigger. Definitely not voting for this fake.

Most of them do. It’s really a very small number of people who truly mean the heritage thing without any prejudice. But there are some that exist. I’ve seen them.

We don’t exist in a vacuum. In 2017 someone knows the connotations associated with putting a Confederate flag on their car or hat or whatever. If a person still chooses to do that, the blowback is on them, not everyone else to parse things out.

I was born, raised and lived in the south for over 34 years... and my “southern heritage” has nothing to do with the confederate flag, and it never will.
This is one of those points that should always be raised when people say that the confederate flag is a symbol of the south, rather than calling it what it is: one of…

Her saying make America America again is White people code for for doing away with everyone who doesn’t look like us. We can all see through the bullshit nationalist rhetoric. Its sad that Trump has pretty much given the ok for people like this to come out of the woodwork. Even scarier is that people actually support…

You can tell she is full of hate just by looking at her tiny piggish eyes. Anyone who in this 21st century doesn’t understand the history of slavery and the Confederacy is deliberately ignorant.

“How is this confusing to people?”

“I also know there are many people who fly the flag in their yards or have a symbol on their truck and it’s not a racist symbol to them, it’s about their Southern heritage.”

This is just the last hateful gasp of terrified white “Christian” men who can’t accept the fact that in a few short decades, the U.S. will be majority brown.

Visitors at work barely can deal with the fact that 18th century Americans/colonists could survive or do anything (we call it the ‘people were stupid back then’ theory. To go along with the ‘people were short back then’ and the counter to the ‘people were better back then’, visitor theories). I’m not astonished at all…

People have known about complex civilizations and cities in Mexico and Central and South America for a very long time. It’s the area of the present-day U.S.A. where people seem not to be able to comprehend that such complex civilizations and cities existed. Which has never made sense to me.

Awesome. You just admitted you’re a credulous moron who believes anything that reinforces his prejudices, no matter how insane. You do not believe in fact or reason; research or evidence.
