Government offices should fly 2 flags: state and country. While I like the idea of a government building running a pride flag, I’m willing to give that up to never see a confederate flag fly again.
When did any US government buildings the Confederate flag?
Ive seen the stars and bars at the courthouse in Shreveport, but that was years ago. Edit: correction: I mean the battle flag.
I find that hard to believe. Was it some ignorant protestor or something?
No sir, it was the battle flag on the flag pole under the stars and stripes at the Caddo courthouse in Shreveport Louisiana. It was many years ago and I’m sure you wouldn’t find one there now.

I find that difficult to believe. It may be because you live in the far north, surrounded by damn yankees. Or possibly this is a dishonest statement.

I was talking about the battle flag. I specifically referred to it by it’s nickname.
You didn’t indicate that you were not talking about the battle flag, in response to my statement about the battle flag. Why not? Poor communication skills or just trolling? To say that the battle flag is not an actual flag is misleading and untruthful.

It’s an easy misdirect away from the actual problem. So yeah, it is absolutely misleading and untruthful.

Blue line flags are a desecration of our country’s flag. Surprised conservatives aren’t ashamed about that.
Come up with an original design, you know, like a pride flag :)

Idk, this is the one that’s flying at my local police dept… maybe there are more but I haven’t seen them tbh
Have you read the flag code? This part is interesting:
The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
One could argue that filtering to black and white is in itself a violation of the code lol
Personally I don’t care and you can wipe your ass with a flag if you want. It’s conservatives who I thought were all about respecting flags. Then yall go and grayscale it and add a random line? Ugh
The venn diagram of “people who give a fuck about flag code enough to recite it” and “jerkoff leftists who proclaim to not care” is a flat circle

Here are two examples:
Alabama (also discusses other states, such as how Mississippi and Georgia formerly had flags with a confederate flag embedded in the design)

Those are battle flags. That isn’t the confederate flag.
colloquial - used in ordinary or familiar conversation; not formal or literary
It is the confederate flag. You know exactly what they meant. Doing an “um achktually” doesn’t rebut their point.

Why would that matter and why would a state house be flying a confederate battle flag either?

Is that really what you believe? That they would fly the flag of their failed rebellious nation for reconciliation and not continued defiance? Wouldn’t showing full support for the US as a nation be more of a show of unity?

Conservatives truly are the biggest crybabies.
As with everything they say (especially their favourite “snowflake” insult) it’s all projection. Biggest hypocrites of them all.
