    The irony has been palpable for over a century. Bizarre that we still accept it as a society

      That’s not the irony.

      The irony is people flying the flag of violent traitors who fought a bloody war against this country while screaming that anybody who doesn’t like it here should get out.

      We desperately needed to let them leave back then, the country would be so much better.

        As long as we can keep the port of New Orleans and navigation rights to the Mississippi River, they can go disappear right up their misinformed idea of God’s asshole. “The South” is a luxury we can no longer afford.
