In her defense? She reported this to a newspaper because "maybe it's a story." A story? Even if it were a confederate flag, so what? What kind of an imbecile calls the media for something like that? (And yes, I know the answer to that last question.)


Should I have used the sarcasm icon smiley button thingy for you? Razz

Wait till they hit Tokyo for the 2020 Olympics. The swastika is used all over to indicate Buddhist temples (they will probably use an alternate symbol on maps published specifically for foreigners). Even though most people know it was used for centuries before the Nazis adopted it, how long before a jet-setting social justice whiner tweets their extreme confusion and outrage?

I’m surprised that the tolerant neighbors didn’t burn the house down just to be sure.

When I was at Osan AB in Korea in 1997, the bus stops on base had swastikas on the corners of the roof. I was told it was a good luck symbol for travelers.

I believe that the Korean swastika is a mirror image of the Nazi swastika.

“Buddhists generally use the symbol with the arms pointing counterclockwise so that the spin comes inward to the person looking at it, which means a person should find truth inside himself not outside himself as the NAZI's did.”

How upset were they when they found out that there is a whole country of these confederate people.

I guess it is to much to ask that an author, of best selling BOOKS, be somewhat educated on the world. What a racist dip shit Rebecca Norris is.

It's pretty depressing when you come to the realization that anything you do will result in some snowflake being offended.

Someone should run up a Bonnie Blue flag in her neighborhood and see if she figures it out.

Come by my house and see a real one. Then if one wishes to be offended they can say they saw a real one.
Seriously, wtf is going on with people. Better call someone because a "confederate flag" is flying. Go back to your safe space.
In the south most people have ancestors who fought under the flag that offends most.
