The Desecration of Our Flag

Uproar Hits Fla. Confederate Flag Show

SHNV has over 2500+ readers. How many of you will read the below, say it's a shame and do nothing? That's the real shame! ... PoP

Florida statutes say it's unlawful to "deface, defile or contemptuously abuse" the Confederate flag, but say it's also illegal to prevent the display of the flag "for decorative or patriotic purposes."

"I think that we're well within the statute," Barber said.

Some interpretations leave sordid impressions

"Dixie is a variety of things to different people, ranging from Southern hospitality to oppression, and its symbols often prove offensive"

"My question for them is: If [the Confederate flag] is such a regional symbol, then why don't black Southerners embrace it the way white Southerners do?" ~ Richard Dellafave, a sociology professor


WELL, SOME DO!

Confederate flag a symbol of defeat

"I'm anti-rebel flag, and not because white-hooded goons wave it across burning crosses or because it's the all-but-official redneck emblem. I don't like the flag because it makes us southerners look like a bunch of losers, because lose is definitely what the Confederates did in the "War of Northern Aggression."

NASCAR needs in-roads to cities

"I’m not asking anyone to care about NASCAR — to most of us it’s a bunch of yokels making left turns for hundreds of miles while thousands of hillbillies get drunk on cheap beer and smoke free cigarettes."

A brother in need!

PRESS RELEASE:

Greetings Southern Ladies and Gentlemen -- I would appreciate it so much if you would forward this along to one and all. This is a lovely man who supports our Cause 100%. His situation is critical and he could use even just $1 from everyone we touch with an e-mail. (Yes, he is African-American, and yes his ancestors fought for the Confederacy!)


Rev. Walker being welcomed as an associate member of Wm. B. Bate Camp 34 in Gallatin, TN.

Reverend Early Walker, an associate member of the William B. Bate Camp 34 of the Sons of Confederate Veterans was seriously injured in an auto accident on U.S. Highway 231 near Bethpage in which his daughter, LaToya, was killed on December 23, 2006.

Reverend Walker remains in assisted living following the accident and a subsequent heart attack and stroke and continues to be in our prayers.

In addition to his activities with the Bate Camp, Reverend Walker is a First Lieutenant in the National Defense Force and a Confederate re-enactor with the Porter Battery.

His ancestors bravely fought for the Confederacy having enlisted in Macon County, Tennessee.

Due to this accident, the family suffers serious financial problems and contributions would be greatly appreciated. The William B. Bate Camp has contributed $500 toward these expenses which include unpaid funeral expenses for Reverend Walker's daughter.

Additional contributions can be made to the LaToya Walker Fund at Regions Bank.

For additional information, call Randy Lucas at 615-451-1013.

You may send even the smallest contribution to attorney Lucas at 111 College Street, Gallatin, TN 37066 and be assured it will get to Rev. Walker.
