i
read your article on lynrd skynrd. first of all i am not racist, second of all
the band isn't either. you need to stop assuming things. its not fair for you to
say that they are racist just because they use and appreciate a flag that
represents heritage and not hatred. i have personaly watched every biography,
read every book on them that i could get my hands on. belive me, they are all
down to earth good people. the flag does not represent racism and it is here to
stay, so deal with it. and thats coming from me not lynrd skynrd.
p.s.. lynrd skynrd does not have anything to do with the kkk so you can hang that up. ##

JOSH:
I didn't write the article, but it speaks for itself. My opinion is that the
South ought to bury its inglorious past rather than celebrate its past sins and
thereby not only insult itself but most of America. --Al

hello
Al! I don't think so.
You
know i've got the same problems as You bout the Confederate flag. Time they bury
that piece of material. if all those flag waving Confederates say they aren't
racist they just love the south etc then I say it's time for them to come up
with a new symbol that's not associated with racism & give their new symbol
a new definition of what their new south is all about.
All
Blessings Always to You Al!
