Yeah those flags are banned on Mill Bases, too. Did you watch the press conference?

Any flag that isn't a US or US State flag can't be flown. Including gay pride flags and Mexican flags.

No one was flying Mexican flags, gay pride flags, or Confederate flags anyway.

Maybe not over military bases. But I heard Putin laughed at our embassy for allegedly flying a fag flag.

Now I was in during the late 70's and 80's, but I knew 2 good old boys 1 from Fl, Ponce de Leone (never saw a black guy before basic), and 1 from Katy?, Tx. Both tacked up a Confederate Battle Flag at Tech School. Keesler AFB, Ms. Honestly, thought Danny was a racist at first, turned out, he was just ignorant. Joe, Jesus the nicest guy you ever met. Knew zip about personal hygiene till I told him. Only took 1 time. Great guy, both country as a mile. The gem in our flight came from Opelousas, La. They just got indoor plumbing before he left for boot camp. Soon they'd get "lectricity".

I think it was actually Johnson who pardoned the Confederacy. Lincoln was shot before the surrender of the south.

The Yanks started the War, look it up, a Blockade is an Act of War. No one signed a document stating the United States held their eternal statehood rights. The Yanks at that time were todays big Gov. tyrants.

Bro no one is flying Mexican flags on military bases. Yeah we fought Mexico but did you forget we took 1/3 of their country and burned Mexico City to the ground? It's not like the Mexicans are bad guys here. I think we can be friends.

I'm not going pro-Mexico here, but I'm unaware of any Mexican flags officially flying over our military bases. Doesn't sound like something that would be permissible.

I am being satirical...I do not actually have any ill will against the Mexican flag...I love Mexico and Mexican culture...just pointing out the irony of banning the confederate battle flag

By the way, didn't the South have just as much right to secede from the North as the founding fathers had a right to declare independence from Brits?

Hey man don't cloud the issue with a bunch of facts. We got a cancel culture to uphold and a history to erase. OrAngE MaN BaaAaD

I wouldn't look at it that way. The Confederacy hardly had a legitimate, moral cause with trying to keep slavery in place. Besides, once a war occurs, legality becomes a moot point. The victor determines legality.

the South had more right to secede from the North than the founding fathers had a right to declare independence from Brits?

Source: Virginia ratifying convention had a clause for succession and the 10th Amendment give states right's to secede.

They should ban that flag just for all the diarrhea it has given me.

The Mexican flag appears to have a Nazi symbol (an eagle) on it.

BAN THE MEXICAN FLAG!!

I look at any foreign flag (including the Confederate one) as nostalgia of people who likely have never been to or spent barely any time in the place the flag represents. And if you see anyone flying an EU or UN flag, feel free to ask their wives out on a date.

Gulleyfoyleismyname 2 points ago +2 / -0

Or the British flag or Italy or Japanese....

Exactly. The Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Are they all enemies? Should their flag be shunned?

After a war there is reconciliation.

I've only ever heard the left say the Confederate flag is bad because RAY-SUST. They love fighting against the USA. They would support it if that's what it "stood for"

It stands for freedom against an oppressive government. The Rebel flag is a great reminder to the whole south land that we stood up against those that would oppress.

States rights died in the civil war, big gov took over.

Do you think that if the loony lefties took over today that they would paint a pretty picture of you? Not a chance.

Which countries HAVEN'T we fought?

France sent us a giant statue dedicated to Liberty we keep to this day - and we've fought against them at least twice.

Oh, we fought against Canada, the UK, Mexico, Japan, a ton of SE Asia.

People ask why the middle east is fucked up. They can't let go of the past. The Democrats and their pals want us to tear ourselves apart over history we can't change. No, get fucked.

Ok you ready for something crazy but true???

Does anyone know what that symbol is on the flag?? Well I’ll tell you. You have a whole population of people who are deeply religious and a lot are superstitious right??

Well that symbol is the symbol of what the Aztecs were given by one of their pagan priests on where to establish the Aztec Empire. It’s the sign of an Eagle eating a snake on a cactus..

Seems like no big deal right??

Well to explain the level of evils that go on just south of the U.S border, and the troubles this nation has in levels of corruption is no wonder why that out of the heavily Catholic and Christian populated country that they put on their national flag the one symbol that completely disregards their traditions and lifestyle ... THE AZTECS were a advanced civilization yes, but they were the worst and most evil sons of bitches out of all the Meso American Tribes... Does not anyone wonder why so many other tribes teamed up with the Spanish to beat the shit out of them???

Imagine New York City became its own nation and then began to kidnapped and murder ,rape and steal from the near by burrows and Long Island and then to take the kidnapped and sacrifice them to the gods???

That the Aztecs... They were so evil and they placed that very foundation of that evil on their flag????

If you want to see change , Change that Godforsaken flag and put something that actually represents the community of Mexico and not the worst part of its History.

This again is like if England or America or any Christian nation decided to put up Druid or Pagan symbols on their national flag... It would be a huge disgrace. But in Mexico??? Who cares? Or are the people that dumb?? I thought they were superstitious?? Why would they not see this which is in plain sight??? Because they are blind to the truth,.

It's not even Mexico anymore

it's regional cartels controlling everything

armed by Fast and Furious military grade weapons

funded by Fast and Furious FBI/CIA quality illegal drugs shipped in by the megabanks trying to destroy our country.

Wells Fargo Wachovia JP Morgan Chase - these type of banks should be nationalized immediately and all funds frozen and assets seized.

They need to be prosecuted for the drugs and money laundering, 100% complicit in this coup attempt number FIVE.

Obama, Holder, Clinton, Yates, Loretta Lynch ALL SHOULD BE HANGING FROM NOOSES AS CROOKED HILLARY CORRECTLY PREDICTED UNDER A TRUMP WIN.

How does Mexico get better? The law and Order problems there are really bad and it needs to be stopped before it completely spills into the USA.

I'm all for banning any mention of the losing side of the civil war, and right after that canceling every native american treaty, no more tribal land, they are losers too right...
