Even flew the Stars and Bars. They eventually changed it, but looking back its pretty amazing it was ever a thing for what was a racially mixed schools - and how it wasnt a big deal there. Hardly see the flag around here at all.

I mean in a large population anywhere there’s probably going to be a handful of yahoos waving it around. I’m sure here even. I’m just saying your inference it’s prevalent there isn’t my experience. It’s far more prevalent in other regions.

No but if I saw one I noticed it. But I’ve seen more casually in North Dakota than I have in North Florida and I’ve spent a lot more time walking and driving around in north Florida than I have North Dakota hell I’ve seen more in Northern California and Josephine County Oregon than I have in north Florida

I’ve spent a relatively small amount of time in Central Florida, Louisiana, Kentucky, and Virginia. Seen it and all of those places far more than I’ve seen it in Oregon, where I’ve lived for the past 45 years. 1

I’m not a fossil tho so I didn’t spend 45 years in the south. it is what it is. Believe what you want. 1
