The Union Flag must be struck from the flag of Hawaii. I find offensive this paean to colonialism. The Alabama flag has troubling similarly to the Scottish flag and might prove offensive to those of Welsh descent. Will Walmart stop selling items made in China, an offensive

I am sure we can turn this into a drinking game. -DiploMad, On Rebel Flags and Progressive Targets http://www.thediplomad.com/2015/06/on-rebel-flags-and-progressive-targets.html
