Some people (mainly batshit crazy conspiracy theorists) believe that Viet Nam is *still* holding a number of American P.O.W.s in remote jungle camps a la Rambo: First Blood Part II, and (from what I understand*) some families of Vietnam-era P.O.W.s have come to believe that the flag has become a means to perpetuating various scams against them.
*Mostly rumors that I've heard through a relative who helped to support a P.O.W. family for a while through their church. If anyone has any actual facts, please don't hesitate to correct me.
I've been living in Georgia since 1981. When I arrived, the State flag incorporated the traitor colors. Since then, after several changes from the 1956 one, the current flag bears the State seal surrounded by 13 stars and 3 stripes: red, white, red. Nobody — at least not officially or publicly —calls to return to the traitor flag.
I drove through Alabama in the mid-90s and saw a literal chain gang of 100% black prisoners picking cotton under the supervision of a shotgun wielding white overseer on a horse. It was jaw dropping, and I lived in NC at the time.
It's a giant deal that members of Mississippi college foootbawl teams are also telling Mississippi that they would prefer not to play under the flag that celebrates their enslavement.
I am late to the party and so maybe this has been said, but many people in my town fly this flag instead of the treason flag. In fact, when we had a decent mayor, this was the flag at city hall.https://www.stennisflagflye...

It's MISSISSIPPI. What d'you expect?
Idiots will always find a way to f**k up things. Sure. Sharia law in Mississippi. Connsidering they already have the Baaahble…
Education sure isn't one of them.
Pretty sure they'd like Sharia law if they just gave it a chance. It hates all the same people as the Talibangelicals. A rose by any other name....

The magnolia flag is nice.

And good for them.
It is obviously his penis. lol. I actually looked it up, and it is the sheathed sword of authority.
For some reason Disqus is giving me a hard time posting pictures, but the older versions of the seal are way better.
I love a good magnolia tree, which is how I know that’s not a magnolia tree. Looks like a fried egg tree, which is even better.

Jesus what an F'd up week.First I found myself rooting for John Bolton.Now I find myself rooting for the NCAA.
Pledging allegiance to a state flag?
Hell, when I was a kid they sometimes made us sing the then state song of Pennsylvania and I only had to pipe that ♫ to thee we pledge our devotion.♫
