They are everywhere. Just another fixture.

we also have Jehovas witnesses, Hare Krishnas, Mormons, and Fire Breathing Pentecostals.

I have a few other Dukes items, and enjoyed the movie (I think I recall a part with a car chase in Cooter's tow truck, they were going down a dirt road at a high speed with "Undercover Angel" by Alan O'Day, one of my all-time favorite songs, cranked up high, then breaking down suddenly, it might have been a Larry the Cable Guy or Bill Engvall film instead)

The movie was shite in my opinion. I will have to care package you some REAL episodes from the REAL Dukes Series....Good old Boss Hogg, Enos, Roscoe....LMFAO!!!

It's a symbol of my heritage and of the freedom that my forefathers fought for. It's a symbol of the history of my family and area. It has not a damn thing to do with race or slavery.

WOW!!! Like black is THE lowest form of humanity and you DATED one so you wont be a RACIST.....RACIST?????



I had to fuck with ya cher!!!

Considering what history has shown about the Esteemed Dr Martin Luther King, though he did some good works, he had his own issues, so NO. There should not be a MLK plate.

We have those here too... not to mention rabid conspiracy theorists, neo-Nazis, separatists, Manson Family fans, communism supporters, ecoterrorists, Scientologists migrating from Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego, gang members and ill-tempered drug dealers with large-caliber weapons and concealed knives.

I agree... a Rosa Parks plate might be a good idea, and in states with a large Native American population, Sequoyah, Sitting Bull, Osceola or Chief Joseph plates might go over well. No MLK or Malcolm X plates, please.

Yeah, usually they are just a fixture...every now and then though, they get the recruiting bug in their ass and go door to door. I've had to tell them to get the fuck off my lawn before and take their pamplet with them.

Yes, but that freedom entailed what again? The right to own slaves..

I see what you're saying here, the swastika was a symbol of peace previously and still is in more than one culture.. the rebel flag, however, has never had positive connotations. It was created out of tension.
