Gavin McInnes of TheRebel.media talks about the Confederate flag controversy from the perspective of a Canadian immigrant to the U.S.
He notes that while Canadians (and especially Quebeckers) are often focused on language, Americans are fixated on race. McInnes offers five reasons why Americans shouldn't ban the Confederate flag.

3. Lincoln was a racist
Yes, he was. But that was 150 years ago - it literally and figuratively has no bearing on today.

Wait.... The government is going door to door and forcing people to give up their flags?

Nobody is talking about banning it. Wave the damn thing all you want.

Face it. You have a very pretty g/f that is great in the sack, but she is bat-shite crazy. When you go out with her, she's out there picking fights for you. You don't want to be in a fight. While you are trying to diffuse the situation, she's gone off and gotten arrested and is trying to kick the window out of the back seat of a cop car.
It's time to move on.
It's time to move on.

The civil war was definitely about slavery

No...not quite right.
quote:
2. The civil war was not about slavery
yes it was. Any dummy who says it was about "states rights"....y'all realize that is usually in reference to a slave owners right to bring his slaves across state lines and still be his property right?
quote:
3. Lincoln was a racist
I think he recognized the potential problems of trying to have slaves and slave owners live peacefully after being freed. Not necessarily racist, IMO, just a realist. I'm sure there was some part of him that was racist, but in the context of time, he was progressive enough to free the slaves.
quote:
4. We don't negotiate with terrorists
What does that have to do with the Confederate flag...something that hasn't been relevant in over 100 years. We don't fly other things that aren't relevant?
quote:
5. America was not built on slavery
Well....slavery was pretty crucial to southern agriculture and the textile industry as our nation was starting out.
