Sometimes I truly have to shake my head at news reports like these.. ok sure, the media is having a field day over this most recent shooting rampage but yet nothing is being done about the fact that the dude was on many different dosages of prescription medication.. Are the pharma companies to blame? Hell yes but nothing will ever be done about that. Instead the president goes on about gun control and the media go on about racism of course and now the most recent flag issues.. Being Canadian we didn't have an issue with our flag changing through history but that's just it.. this is history and to say you are going to remove it from the stores so you can no longer purchase it.. what the heck is that going to solve? Are you also going to remove this part from the history books? The confederation was an integral part of the "United" part of the States and eventually what became the Constitution of the United States of America.. are we that brainwashed by the media to forget this? For those out there that have been flying the confederate flag, in my opinion, does nothing but label them as ignorant individuals that don't know any better and have never really learned anything from history. Sure it was a flag to be flown by many in that era as it was nothing more than waving the flag of your political party would be today. But now that the USA is just that, a United States of America, I should hope that ALL Americans recognize this confederate flag as an important part of the American history and most certainly should be reported as such, instead of removing it from the market.. after all, who in their right mind would go out today and buy one and have it flying in their yard with all this over blown media hype? If anything, the fact that they are removing it from the markets, there will be those that want to get their hands on it, if for no other reason, than to be able to sell it for a hefty price in the future.. how pathetic America--why not remember where you came from and respect history for what it is... HISTORY!
