Good day all. The Progressives Liberals and Morons, (But I am repeating myself), hate everything that made America great. They have decided that the only thing to do is destroy everything about our great nation, starting with our history.
Now, there is no doubt we have bad things that happened in our past. Slavery of course, and what we did to the Indian population as we expanded across the continent. However, those things were fine “AT THAT POINT IN TIME, although today it is considered wrong. Still, it is our history.
Then we have the American Revolution. Back in 1776, when we got things going, we needed a unifying flag. I don’t need to go into the story of Betsy Ross and the first flag, (Well, perhaps I actually do. Children today aren’t taught American History any longer), however, what came out was the early version of what we have today. 13 stripes, alternating red and white, a blue field with 13 stars on a circle. This represented the 13 colonies rebelling against King George III.
Now, the Progressives are accusing anyone who has this flag of being white supremacists and racists. Here are the details from the Washington Examiner:
A couple in Utah waving the 13-starred Betsy Ross flag at a Real Salt Lake soccer game was told to stash their American banner or risk ejection from the game by stadium personnel.
Randolf and Diana Scott consider themselves to be superfans of the Major League Soccer team in Salt Lake City and suggested that the flag was just a part of their normal expression of fandom in the stadium. “Soccer is just a big part of our life,” Diana said of their head-to-toe Real attire.
Well, nobody is perfect. I’m sure that soccer is an interesting sport. So is watching grass grow and paint dry. But, this isn’t about my opinion of soccer, it’s about idiots who hate America, something that I strongly doubt the Scotts are.
The couple said that the American flag has long been a part of their expression when attending soccer games but that the Betsy Ross flag was indeed a new addition. “Diana bought it for me actually, because my other flag was kind of old and falling apart.”
So what’s the problem? This was the flag we fought under to win our independence. What possible problem could that be?
The flag, which was designed by Betsy Ross at the start of the American Revolution in 1776, represents the original 13 colonies in a circular pattern along with the 13 bars and stripes still represented on the flag today. The vintage design has recently been the subject of controversy as some outlets have asserted that it is associated with hate groups. Nike recently halted production of sneakers that were intended to don an image of the flag.
Nike caved in to the demands of that worthless leftist idiot Kaepernick, who, seeing his career going down the drain, decided to kneel during the national anthem. He was eventually released from the team, and claimed it was because everyone is a racist. The reality is, he sucked as a ball player.
“They kept telling us if he wasn’t going to take it down, we were going to be rejected from the game,” Diana Scott said of the couples attempt to wave the flag at a Real Salt Lake game. Stadium officials claimed the flag was a “symbol for hate groups.”

“He asked me — he’s like, ‘So what’s the purpose of the flag?'” Randolf said of the stadium official’s confrontation. “I was like, ‘Well ’cause, we love America’ … When people see me or Diana with this flag, I hope they can understand that it’s about the freedoms we have here in America. The legacy that America has.”
Meanwhile the scum running that stadium decided to double down on stupid.
A statement from Real Chief Business Officer Andy Carroll implied that the flag represented values that were inconsistent with the soccer team’s. “Recently, and very controversially as well as surprising to us, the Colonial flag has been adopted as a symbol for hate groups,” Carroll said. “Any controversial flags or other similar banners or signs with symbols of hatred, divisiveness and/or intolerance whether intentional or otherwise will not be permitted in our stadiums. Period.“
Andy Carroll needs to try studying history and modern events. The only intolerance I see is on the side of the Progressives. They are intolerant of any idea that differs from their world view and they will resort to violence to get their way. I wasn’t able to find much on this guy, Carroll, just business stuff. Perhaps he should de-ass his head and take a look around. The American flag, in all it’s variations is not racist.
Do people misuse things? Of course they do, but to threaten and punish loyal, true blue Americans who are showing their patriotism tells me that you are just another screaming moonbat with 2 functioning brain cells. I think it’s time to send the offices of Real Salt Lake a bunch-a-ton of cards and letters telling them they are wrong. Keep it clean, no foul language and make no threats of violence. (Threats to not spend money on them, if that is something you do now, is perfectly legitimate)
Contact their advertisers and let them know that you are unhappy with Real Salt Lake’s policies. I won’t call for a boycott. Those are generally worthless and tend to backfire. Just politely tell them you are unhappy with the policies of a company they are doing business with, thank them for their attention and leave it at that. Those sorts of messages tend to sink in a lot more then threats of boycotts these days. Oh, and buy a Betsy Ross flag to show your support of the Scotts and of America.
