    Default Re: The term "PC" should be renamed

    Regardless of a country's past, its flag is its flag and there is really nothing that can or should be done about it. Do we really want to revisit each country's past and reassess who gets to keep its flag and how doesn't? What country cannot be accused of any wrongdoing in past armed conflicts by another party? Just because I don't agree with Miles' assessment of the U.S. and how wrong it's been regarding past invasions and the like... doesn't mean the rest of the world agrees with you and me.

    The other examples? Mexicans should be free to wave their flags, as again they represent their own country. Whether it's done in the proper context or not, is besides the point. Communist flags represent a political ideology. It's not hurting or offending you, who happen to have other beliefs.

    None of these examples match the desire or "need" to wave a Nazi flag.

    I don't know, I'm not suggesting we revisit every flag, I'm NOT for censorship regardless of the feelings people have.


    Mexicans are free to wave their flags....to do it while wanting to be counted as LEGAL AMERICAN CITIZENS is pretty fucking stupid....but yeah they fly their flags. It offends me, but I'm not going around trying to ban it, they just look dumb to me is all. Have pride in where you are from, but also show some respect for where you are is my general rule that I personally follow.

    Communist flags represent and ideology? Well Nazi flags represent political ideology as well sooooo I guess thanks for helping my argument . National Socialism is horrible, and hey Socialism is IN THE TITLE, imagine something with socialism in there being "bad" and leading to massive death and destruction....I mean really



    I say fly whatever flag you want to fly. On property you own, on vehicles you own, on buildings you own, in places where other people agree with you....it shouldn't be an issue.
