Flag Confusion


Recommended Posts

I wouldn’t be surprised if the dolts picketed the British embassy because of the Union Jack.:(

Some people need a good slap...numerous times...

 

I had a dumbarse at work complaining about someone in his neighborhood flying the Confederate flag. He was showing a photo around to the guys then showed me. He is, shall we say, an inner city urbanite. The flag he was all lathered up over was the flag of Great Britain. 
I looked him dead in the eye and said “You are an idiot! That’s the British flag!”

This moron actually tried to argue with me. I whipped out my phone hit DDG and used the mike to say. “Flag of Great Britain”. I then showed him the results. He just stood there mouth breathing, which is what he’s best at. 
I then told him to go to work...something he’s not very good at...

 

God, I despise stupidity.

We had a business here that few the American flag, the Texas state flag, and the Confederate flag...but not the stars and bars battle flag, that everyone seems to recognize, but the other, official, Confederate flag.  He told me many folks just thought it was an early version of the American flag, from the time when there were fewer states. We laughed about that, and shook our heads at how ignorant the public-school-educated people were getting these days.

Then I read about the Danish flag being mistaken for a Confederate battle flag, and that was even worse.

I need to be in real estate.  I got some Gulf of Mexico beach-front property for sale in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska, that I could sell. 

 

Heaven help us.

i never understood getting offended by a flag , it made no sense to me , but now i get it better - its not the flag , they dont even know what that looks like , its the idea that anyone might look successful that offends them , 

 

FWIW the nazi flags and symbols dont offend me , it was the national socialist behavior of the nazis that offends me , and now that our left has adopted all the same behaviors and thinking , they offend me

Uh huh... and they erroneously refer to the Battle Flag as "The Stars and Bars," and have no clue of that title belonging to the First National Flag of the Confederacy.

If you ever watched any of Jay Leno’s “Jaywalking”segments you understand that ignorance is alive and well. People don’t know who we fought in The Revolution or even WWII.

They couldn't pick the Stars and Bars out of a line up.

 

Wanna blow their minds?

 

Explain the Bonny Blue Flag to them. 

 

When they get all butt-hurt over it, show them the Somali national flag.;)

Which would be a laugh because that is the Van Dorn battle flag.
 

But they are woke.

 

That means that they don't have to have a clue much less be correct!  Facts aren't allowed to interfere with their kneejerk reactions based on emotion.

Sheldon Cooper is a character on Big Bang Theory.  He does a web series called 'Dr Sheldon Cooper's Fun With Flags'.

 

Thanks.  I'm aware that the show exists.  That is all I know about it.  

Well, I guess now I know that there is a character named Sheldon Cooper and he is a vexillologist. (weird word, first half is Latin based, last half is Greek)

I didn’t watch it when it was on. But we’ve been bingeing old episodes. I’m now a Big Bang fan! :lol:

Somewhere, Sheldon Cooper is snorting and harrumphing derisively. 

Points to you!

Bless her heart!

 

Public education in action!  Now we see why the teacher's unions are so against home schooling. 

 

Kids might actually learn something!
