What side of the Mason-Dixon line are you on?

Funny story from my trip last year. When I was driving around MD, it was kinda weird to see CSA flags being displayed. I hear it depends on where you go in MD you see them all over the place. I guess I've been dumbed down by PCness.

lol, when you drive around the southern states (especialy the ones that were major confederacy states.) you see alot of CSA flags. You also Find alot in old cemetarys down here.

If you ever have the time, read "The Battle Cry of Freedom." The politics behind the CW are pretty interesting, espcially in the South. One of the parts that I found facinating were the Southerners that didn't own slaves that were dragged into the political mess of the people that did own slaves.

One thing that I found interesting, was that most anti-slavery people hated the concept of slavery, but didn't give a rip about the people themselves.

And where were you? Frederick (aka Fredneck)? Or maybe St. Mary's County? Takoma Park (which makes Berkeley, CA, look like Sugarland, TX) would be extremely unlikely. Certainly, such a place as TP which values "diversity" would have no problem w/someone flying the Stars & Bars...right...RIGHT???
