    Reality is creeping into your brain slowly. You couldn't find a house with a Nazi flag that didn't look like it belonged to welfare recipients because folks who fly that flag are welfare recipients. So instead you had to find a battle flag and pretend it was the same thing, even though it clearly wasn't.
    Oh so the Confederate flag, used exclusively by racists now, makes you feel better now to call it the Virginia Battle Flag!

    The Confederate flag finds it's way to every Trump Rally! Is that why you play it down?

    How do you know that that house in the OP was lived in by Welfare Recipients?

    It could have been Marjorie Taylor Green's house for all any of us know!

    You guys are deeper than I thought!

    And the rest of the post refutes it:

Being stupid shouldn't be a death penalty, but in this case it just may make him believe he's really "unlucky" or he may actually understand why people might dislike him and like I said is willing to put his family in danger to make his point....
    Slippery slope IMO. Just sayin. Not my house nor am I a Nazi so in the end.....not my problem. Just dont be shocked when the guy across town with the Antifa flag has a cocktail come flying thru his front window one day.

    Right. There was no date on the image. My guess is you found an image of a neighborhood in Mississippi back when they used to use that flag as their state flag that was flying the state flag and immediately assumed it was the same thing as some rando using a Nazi flag in Michigan.

    Your example failed to prove your point, it is still failing, and your new nickname of Mr.Stupidy doopy doo da seems to be earned at this point rather than just a snarky redux of your failed nickname to me.

    The reality is, the OP shows a house, like all houses that fly Nazi flags, to be one in a not so good neighborhood and you were unable to find one that was different so you used a different flag, flown on something other than a house and not in a trashy neighborhood, and pretended you had found a gold nugget in the Bering Sea.

    Once you down that kind of road a whole lot of bad things can happen very quickly. Best to think like an actual Human instead of a stupid jackass.

    That may happen, however the Antifa flag doesn't have such a connotation in the neighborhood across town as the flag of the loser of WWII does in a less than stellar neighborhood in MI. I would not be as likely to predict that kind of mayhem for that guy as I would for the owner of a Nazi flag in a poor neighborhood in MI.

    My point still stands. There are bad elements in society.

    Point being,....the guy who set the fire would also be a jackass. To say nothing of all the unintended consequences so many seem to be missing.
