Citazione:Âdalla pagina fb di Cooter..prima che hazzard venga bannato :approv:
to all of our friends and fans from ben jones aka âcooterâ
i think all of hazzard nation understands that the confederate battle flag is the symbol that represents the indomitable spirit of independence which keeps us âmakinâ our way the only way we know how.â
that flag on top of the general lee made a statement that the values of the rural south were the values of courage and family and good times.
our beloved symbol is now being attacked in a wave of political correctness that is unprecedented in our nation of free speech and free expression. activists and politicians are villifying southern culture and our heritage as being bigoted and racist. we know that this is not the case. and we know that in hazzard county there was never any racism.
though the flag has been removed from such places as walmart, target and amazon, it will never be removed from any of our cooterâs stores and museums. we are all the same good people today that we were last week and last year and we are not going to be shamed into turning our backs on our heritage and our convictions.
we are not racists. we despise racism and bigotry. and we think the people who are creating this âcultural cleansingâ are the real bigots in this story.
when we say our flag stands for âheritage, not hateâ and âpride, not prejudiceâ, we mean it. and we believe that old saying, âyou canât know where you are going if you forget where you came from.â
cooterâs is going to continue to sell our southern symbols as long as there is a cooterâs. i will fight these people until hell freezes over, and then i will fight them on the ice.
